Partition Magic 8 doesn't like dir_index, resize_inode or ext_attr in
FC3 ext3 partitions. They must be removed before it will allow a resize.

You must disable SELINUX first.
edit /etc/selinux/config, and set SELINUX=disabled

Get e2fsprogs-1.37.tar.gz from sourceforge, compile and install it.

then do this (in single user mode!)

umount /dev/xxxx
debugfs -w /dev/xxxx -R "features ^resize_inode ^dir_index ^ext_attr"
e2fsck -y -f /dev/xxxx

Then reboot and run Partition Magic
