Partition neatness and order question ?

Hi;
Over the last 3 Fedora installs, I have managed to get my partition
numbers out of sequence.
parted /dev/sdb returns:
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 8225kB 41.1GB 41.1GB extended lba
5 8258kB 90.5MB 82.2MB logical ext3 boot
6 90.5MB 1349MB 1258MB logical linux-swap
7 1349MB 9739MB 8390MB logical ext3
8 9739MB 30.6GB 20.9GB logical ext3
9 30.6GB 41.1GB 10.5GB logical fat32
Starting correctly with number 1 (sdb1) then jumps to 5 (sdb5). How can
I rename my partitions so that they go in sequence; sdb1, sdb2, ...
sdb6.
This is simply a neatness fetish; the numbering is not presently causing
any problems to the actual opeation of F-7. Am I best just to leave it
alone, or is there a simple way or program that can re-number these
partitions?
