Maybe do so with a special rescue CD or a live-CD Linux like knoppix. Then move the data from hda5 to a safe place and then erase both partitions hda5 and hda6. Then recreate a new partition which will be used by hda5 and for /usr and the remaining rest for hda6. Create the filesystem on both new partitions. Copy back the saved data to the new and bigger hda5. Boot as before.
