I have Snow Leopard and partitioned with 9Gb to Mountain Lion. I tried to boot to recovery and then resize in disk utility, but can't. I want to shrink my SL and expand my ML. I can shrink my snow leopard, but can't expand the ML. There's no "drag-able arrow" in between the 2 partitions. Anyone know a fix?

Side note: when creating the original ML partition, disk utility kept saying "error, ...reduce change in resize". I could only partition by 3Gb. So i eventually deleted my Windows virtual machine which was dynamic. (thought that was issue since HD wasn't pre-allocated) Then tried to repair permissions. I was then able to make 9Gb partition.
