Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gparted
Tried to reduce the size of an NTFS partition from ~230 to ~220 GB on a USB-connected HDD. ntfsresize -P --force /dev/sdh1 -s 234552052223 --no-action says: [snip] Relocating needed data ... ERROR: Extended record needed (1032 > 1024), not yet supported! Please try to free less space. I just ran chkdsk /f on it in Windows 7 so it wouldn't surprise me if it messed up the filesystem somehow.
