I have read the above but can't get parted to recognize hda2 .or 
hda3. I installed OpenSuSE 10.2 in a new box with an 80 G hard 
drive. The default values use the whole disk. I want to make 
room for more distros.

I booted with a Ubuntu disk and added hda2 and hda3 in /etc/fstab 
as follows:

unionfs / unionfs rw 0 0
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs nosuid,nodev 0 0
/dev/hda1 swap  swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hda2 /     ext3 defaults 0 0
/dev/hda3 /home ext3 defaults 0 0

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo tune2fs -O^has_journal /dev/hda2
tune2fs 1.38 (30-Jun-2005)
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo parted  /dev/hda2 resize 21476 8000
Error: Partition doesn't exist.
Information: Don't forget to update /etc/fstab, if necessary.
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$

What am I missing?
