The problem is what I tripped on and in the log above:
ERROR: Extended record needed (3696 1024), not yet supported!
Feb 23 15:10:30 ubuntu ntfsresize: Please try to free less space.
I bet this bug is a duplicate. I guess this is a bug in ntfstools?

I have also just seen this happen on my system using Jaunty Alpha 4 Live
CD. I tried to resize an NTFS system (Windows 7 beta) and it just sat
there for 10 minutes or so. Finally a message came up saying it could
not write the changes to the disk. I rebooted the Live CD and attempted
it again
Okay, booted back into Windows (chkdsk /f ran, rebooted after check and
logged in). I restarted and booted again from Live CD and tried to
install Jaunty again. Here's the output:

possibly bad install cd or bad HD:
The installer encountered an error copying files to the hard disk:
[Errno 5] Input/output error
This is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or a faulty hard
disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower
