Here is the printout from parted. I have created a new partition (4)
where I will try to backup 2 before doing anything else.

Disk geometry for /dev/hda: 0.000-19077.187 megabytes
Disk label type: msdos
Minor    Start       End     Type      Filesystem  Flags
1          0.031     47.065  primary   ext3        boot
2         47.065   4298.642  primary   ext3
4       4698.699  18826.171  primary   ext3
3      18826.172  19077.187  primary   linux-swap

Doesn't seam like it. I put some coins one the [ENTER] and it worked for
hours.. (Couldn't use the -y flag because then the repair stopped.) And
then after a reboot all the errors where still there.

Can you also give values in megabytes?

Did you interrupt the resize?

This is normal if you interrupt the resize.  e2fsck should be able
to fix everything, though.
