Documentation claims "parted" can resize ext3. The only way I succeeded in resizing ext3: 1) create ext2 2) tune2fs -j /dev/xxx 3) now I can resize ext3 with "parted"
When I cannot resize ext3 (it says: "No Implementation: This ext2 filesystem has a rather strange layout! Parted can't resize this (yet)." 1) after checking this newly created ext3 (using "tune2fs -j") with "fsck.ext3". Probably "fsck.ext3" adds additional information, and "parted" can't work with it. 2)after creating ext3 directly with "mkfs -t ext3 /dev/xxx", or using PM (namely, 8.0). To say more, Disk Drake (with Mdk9.2) works fine with ext3. I hope this will be fixed... soon...
