[Bug 48229] Re: Partition table destroyed when resizing NTFS

[Torsten Eichstädt]

I had a very similar bug that I think has the same source:
ntfs-resize worked well (I enlarged the FS).
After writing a new partition table with the partitioner shipped with edgy-alternate-beta-i386.iso as of Sep 28, installing grub or lilo (tried both) failed and I couldn't write a new mbr with the XP CD's rescue system. The partition table was corrupt.

After searching the bug list for similar bugs I think I can suggest to relate these bugs all together, as I think they all have the same source of failure (writing corrupt partition table):
48229
9440
10535
14330

Further, I think there is evidence that these bugs might have the same source of failure:
10712
14135
16127
19634

The last ones are all boot loader related bugs.

Hope this helps
