You can actually edit partitions without ubuntu uninstall by, for example, gparted

EDIT: you can also install Gparted from the basic repositary, from Software Center or by sudo apt-get install gparted

After you have Ubuntu installed you can (if needed) edit partitons from there. It is also possible to edit partitions by booting from media containing GParted Live. – Ruslan Gerasimov May 15 '14 at 12:13
