Partition 5 is formatted with ext3. parted isn't liking this but i thinkthat's because it's having trouble resizing the ext3 filesystem, rather thanbecause it can't resize the partition itself.
Is the filesystem mounted at the time?  Maybe it can't be live-resized?

No, the file system was definitely not mounted at the time. I was ableto do this using fdisk as Alain suggested earlier. Thanks for offeringyour advice though!
