You're trying to resize your existing 2.25TB partition into
a smaller, 3.0GB one. Adding three more zeros should help:
resize 1 0 3000000
Also, you might want to try a newer version of parted.
David,
I am interested to see if you have success resizing the ext2 partition
of such a size. I was debugging a resizing issue about 2weeks ago.
