Early on you said you had 27Gb free. Your extended partition is only 2Gb.
Before you go any further, I think it would be good to use fdisk to delete
/dev/hdb5 and /dev/hdb4. Remake /dev/hdb4 as extended to use the remainder of
the drive. Then make /dev/hdb5 again and reboot to see if it works.
If you don't show more than 2 Gb for the extended, then something may be wrong
that is not showing your entire drive. How big is that drive?
As it is, this is showing that the logical partition is using the whole
extended - 2 Gb worth.
