I ran into the same problem when trying to install Edgy together on my Feisty installation. Resizing the ext3 partition (created by Feisty) during Edgy install failed with some non-verbose error like "unable to resize partition".
I've opened another terminal (Alt+F2) and tried parted. It gave me the following error message: "Error: File system has an incompatible feature enabled".

According to "parted --version", Edgy's using v1.7.1.
