Weird. I've done dozens of ext2 resizings with PM, and the only time I ever had a problem was with a dead drive. The only reasons why I have discontinued using it are (1) I cannot boot from my Windoze partition for some reason and (2) I now use filesystems that aren't supported by PM (XFS, JFS, and ReiserFS).
