Everytime you resize a partition that contains or will contain a FAT
filesystem it is a very good idea to fill the first couple of sectors
with zeros. Otherwise you can indeed overwrite data on other partition,
have format fail silently, and other weird things.
So:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdXX bs=512 count=4
Wichert.
