Agree. I had the same error message with a Kubuntu 8.04 live-cd. Starting windows and do a shut-down solved the problem. A more informative error message would be helpful. To the current text "Resize operation failure. An error occured while writing the changes to the storage devices. The resize operation is aborted."
Add something like: "This might be the result of an inconsistent ntfs filesystem. Starting the windows system and do a proper shutdown might help." would really help users. -- [Feisty] uninformative error when resizing ntfs partitions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88095 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
