I'm interested in this too, so I went looking a bit, and there are many people citing this message in the parted mailing list archives, but AFAICS no responses. > So you can do anything else, no resizing. Yeah, well, I don't know if that is exactly the point, but according to the GNU parted homepage, parted can only resize ext2, ext3 and reiserFS partitions if the starting point remains fixed... I guess that's rarely very useful, because in many cases, there is another partition immediately following the first partition... That's how it is in my case anyway. There are probably intentions of fixing this some time, but right now, it seems like the only thing those of us who are not great hackers can do is wait patiently.
