There would have been no need to move that new partition. To make linux 
happy with shifted partitions one boots from a rescue disk and edits the 
relevant scripts (usually /etc/fstab on the root volume) and the boot 
script (/etc/lilo.conf or equivalent). This makes linux aware of the new 
setup without needing to move anything. What would you have done if you 
had not had a tool that moves partitions around ?
