MP, I agree with you. I hate that with Ubuntu. This is a really serious bug which causes data loss in a LTS (!!) version which is more than 1 year old. Still, it is being left here unfixed. I beliebe that it should be warned when downloading 6.06 that this causes data loss - or an updated 6.06 iso

It sounds like the consens is to upgrade gparted - the changelog is full of fixes and it's likely IMHO that it may fix this issue. There's a bug about upgrading gparted for Feisty: Bug #81185. -- Partition table destroyed when resizing NTFS https://launchpad.net/bugs/48229 -- ubuntu-bugs maili
