As to my knowledge the tools are not able to resize the mounted root partition. They have to unmount the partition which is not possible for the root of a running system. You should use the first fedora / red hat CD and start the rescue system. You will be able to resize /dev/hda2. I used resize2fs and fdisk to resize the filesystem first and then the partition size. But parted should do it in one step. It is a dangerous work in theory. I did it several times without any problems. Peter
