I had a very similar bug that I think has the same source: ntfs-resize worked well (I enlarged the FS). After writing a new partition table with the partitioner shipped with edgy-alternate-beta-i386.iso as of Sep 28, installing grub or lilo (tried both) failed and I couldn't write a new mbr with the XP CD's rescue system. The partition table was corrupt.
After searching the bug list for similar bugs I think I can suggest to relate these bugs all together, as I think they all have the same source of failure (writing corrupt partition table): 48229 9440 10535 14330 Further, I think there is evidence that these bugs might have the same source of failure: 10712 14135 16127 19634 The last ones are all boot loader related bugs.
