Would you be able to get a backtrace?

You will need to compile parted with debug information, like this:

        $ tar zxvf parted-1.6.15.tar.gz
        $ cd parted-1.6.15
        $ CFLAGS=-g ./configure && make

Then

        $ su
        # cd parted
        # libtool gdb parted
        (gdb) run
        (parted) resize 5 26126.3809 65128.1792
        segmentation fault
        (gdb) backtrace

Thanks,
