Tom proposed the following answer:
Hi

I really thought that getting 10Gb of space for Ubuntu on the 160Gb
drive was going to be quite easy but it's turning out to be very
difficult to do some fairly easy things.  I know you are getting very
confused.  Maybe it's time to try a different way?

What do you want to do?  I feel that we start trying to do something and
then have to leave it for a bit, which is fine but when we try to start
again suddenly everything gets changed around again so that we have to
start again from the beginning.

Do you have an Ubuntu 9.04 Cd?  If so then please get rid of the 7.10
one.  The 9.04 Cd should work well as a LiveCd, please try it.  With the
9.04 LiveCd please go up to the top taskbar and click on

System - Administration - Partition Editor

and let us know how much space is available in partitions 2 & 3 of the
80Gb hard-drive.  Note that the 9.04 LiveCd already has gparted
included.

Please let me know if you have a 9.04 cd or an 8.04 one
Regards from
Tom :)
