parted can resize ext2 quite fine. Don't forget that Ted Tso developed the resize ext2 program for Partition Magic. His condition was putted GPL in one or two years. If you want resize an ext3 partition, just convert it to ext2, resize it, and reconvert it to ext3 (tunefs(8)). $ apt-cache show parted [...] Parted currently supports DOS, Mac, Sun, BSD, GPT and PC98 disklabels/partition tables, as well as a 'loop' (raw disk) type which allows use on RAID/LVM. Filesystems supported are ext2, ext3, FAT (FAT16 and FAT32) and linux-swap. Parted can also detect HFS (Mac OS), JFS, NTFS, ReiserFS, UFS and XFS filesystems, but cannot create/remove/resize/check these filesystems yet.
