Hello,
   I'm currently using parted 1.6.23, and I am not able to move my
fat32 partition. Here is the error message.

---
(parted) move 9 24703 25961
No Implementation: GNU Parted cannot resize this partition to this
size.  We're
working on it!

And here is the output of the print command

I am attempting to move the 9th partition so that I may increase the
size of the 8th partition (the reiserfs one).
Here is the output of my attempt to resize the partition.

---
(parted) resize 9
Start?  [23442MB]? 23442
End?  [24701MB]? 25701
Error: Can't have the end before the start!
No Implementation: GNU Parted cannot resize this partition to this
size.  We're
working on it!

I do not understand why it says the end that I have defined is before
the start.

Thanks,
ravster.
