It's probably detecting something unexpected and aborting. You could try booting to the DD CD and trying the procedure.

Please note that using the Merge feature is not something I recommend. It's too risky and too frequently causes data loss. If you must use it, make sure you have a current backup image of the drive first.

Doing several resize operations is usually a lot safer and only one partition at a time is at risk. I also recommend having a backup image before resizing, just in case.
