Did you a defrag before starting?
If do it and try again.
A week or so ago, I was able to resize the Windows partition (fat32) by about 1.3 gb, and succesfully create an ext3 in the blank space. When I try to resize it again, but I got some ped_file resize error thing. The HD is only about 18 gb, the fat32 is about 16.7 gb and 10 gb full, and the ext3 is about 1.3 gb. Any ideas to what keeps causing this error?
