GNU Parted is a program for creating, destroying, resizing, checking
and copying partitions, and the file systems on them. This is useful
for creating space for new operating systems, reorganising disk usage,
copying data between hard disks and disk imaging.

GNU ext2resize is a package which allows resizing ext2 and ext3
filesystems (both shrinking and growing). The ext2resize tool is for
resizing unmounted filesystems, and ext2online is for growing a
mounted filesystem (it needs a kernel patch to work, however).

I have never tried them. TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK.
