Subject: Expand suspend to disk partition - how?

I asked the question here some time ago. I plan to get some
more memory for my Vibrant LS. As Ken suggested (thanks!),
I used fdisk and found out my suspend to disk partition was
only 140 MB, and I am planning to increase my memory to 256
MB.

Using partition magic 4.0, I managed to move my C: upward
by another 140 MB. My disk now looks as follow:

free space 7 MB
partition ("type 84"?) 140 MB
free space 140 MB
c: (FAT32) ~6GB

Is there a way to expand the second partition to fill the
140MB free space following it? I am still trying to do it
in a non-destructive way. Should I delete the partition
and re-create one twice the size? How do I create a hidden
partition of "type 84"?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions,

Kawah
