I have been facing this issue even when I boot through Gparted LiveCD. My goal is to install Windows dual booting with Ubuntu (My wife is not comfortable with linux)

Don't ask me about the ext2 and fat32 partitions here, I don't have any clue myself as to when and how they got created. Also let me know if it would be safe to remove these.

Suggestions? Advice?

sda1 is the ESP and you need it to boot in EFI+GPT. sda2 is certainly a boot partition and hold your kernel, and yes you need it.

LVM is tricky to shrink. Look at the previous ansver there: How can I resize an LVM partition? (i.e: physical volume)
