parted resize error

[Reed Henry]

I'm using the parted 1.6.5 boot disks.  I want to resize a very large 
partition on my 120GB disk.
I execute parted /dev/hda and then type print at the parted prompt, this 
is what I get ...
Disk goemetry for /dev/hda: 0.000-117246.937 megabytes
Disk label type: msdos
Minor  Start    End          Type      Filesystem  Flags
1      0.031    62.753       primary   ext3        boot
2      62.754   117239.985   extended
5      62.785   2110.100     logical   linux-swap
6      2110.131 117239.985   logical   ext3


Now I do a resize command
resize 6 2110.131 116000

Nothing happens.  I pop into another shell and do a ps and the parted 
/dev/hda process has a D in the stat column.

Any ideas?
