Partition table entries are not in disk order
Your first problem is here. You need to get your partition order
straightened out.
No, this doesn't matter at all. See
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=361980
The people discussing this at that site are mostly clueless. None seems to
even know what the message means. That you would cite this, after
instructing the OP to create a partition on nonexistent space, puts your
own level of "clue" in serious doubt.
Partitions out of order for someone who obviously does not know what he's
doing will lead to disaster somewhere down the road. Best get them fixed
now before there is important data on the machine, and the wrong partition
gets formatted or deleted, at some future date. When he tries to add a new
partition, or tries to merge two, that are numerically side by side, but
in fact are at opposite ends of the disk... sounds like a sure-fire recipe
for disaster to me. There are reasons for putting things in order. If
there were not there would be no reason to generate a warning that such is
not the case.
