Well, you should launch gparted from the terminal:
sudo gparted
You will need to set up sysadmin with orca each time you boot the livecd 
to do this since gparted is a admin tool, please check the orca wiki for 
instructions on this.

I'm working on a python script to do this, but don't hold your breath, I 
am really busy with other things in my life so haven't had a lot of time 
to look at it.
