I cannot remember whether the resizing gave me an error or not. So, i 
don't think it did. If there are any information you need, don't 
hesitate to contact me. However, I am planning to wipe that volume tonight.
Would it be possible to correct the super block? I have backed 
everything up, so i can afford to do some risky tests!

Best regards,
