qtparted is still in the testing repository on fedora.us ->
http://www.fedora.us/pkglists/fedora-1-testing.html. So I think it did
not already pass quality management.

On http://qtparted.sourceforge.net/features.en.html you can see, that
NTFS partitions are supported, but see the notes there. You might lack
mkntfs and ntfsresize.

Run e2fsck as you are told to do. Running a resizer on a partition which
may contain faults you highly risk to damage it unrepairable.

Seems you have 2 of these partitions. If these partitions are ext3
formatted use fsck.ext3 instead.

Resizing a mounted partition is prohibited.

Hm, you did that while they were unmounted, like booted in rescue mode?

I would recommend to use the qtparted RPM by fedora.us which is compiled
on and for FC1.
