Very possible that is the problem. A live cd with gparted would work, but if there is any way you should backup your data first. Might also use gddrescue to create a complete image of the drive to a file in a safe place (gddrescue rocks!) before doing the resize. Think you can gddrescue individual partitions or the whole drive. (been a while since i've had to do it) if you go with partition images it makes it pretty easy to mount them later and get at the contents.
Also, while we're talking about this stuff, if you have a machine with enough space to store disk images, clonezilla and fog are great. You can keep clean images, do installs and such to see what happens and recover completely if necessary using your image backups. (the only limitation of fog is that you would need to run ext2 file systems. ext4 is not yet supported though that is coming soon) Nice thing about fog too is you can set it up to pxe boot machines. I use it to send tinycore out to some thin clients I have here. (128 mb diskonchip drives, 256 megs of mem) Makes it nice to do loads too. Install 1 machine the way I like it, grab the image with fog, deploy it to the other machines.
