I was just shown the solution to my problem, using the "sfdisk" program instead of the "fdisk" or "parted" programs. Apparently "parted" could not work because the drive is not really SCSI, and the "fdisk" program is to "incorrect" and was overwriting a portion of the disk. however, "sfdisk" turns out to be more correct -- although more cumbersome to use.

I have an NFS volume that I'm trying to resize a partition on.
I suggest you try Parted Magic: http://partedmagic.com/
It doesn't do anything you can't do from the command line, but it's much easier to use.
