world! [that's funny, it automatically takes out leading "hello"s]
I'm installing Ubuntu on a friend's laptop, and I encountered a problem while resizing the Ubuntu partition. I was expanding it to the left (move and resize), but the process was interrupted while it was performing the actual data copying. GParted says the partition is corrupted and the filesystem can't be read. Now, I'm not worried about reinstalling. The problem is that I had already copied some of the files over from the Windows partition.
How can I resume the copying process? Here's what GParted says about it:

One particular thing that intrigues me is the has_journal_ext_attr_resize_inode attribute under Filesystem features. It's as though it knows it was in the middle of a resize. Just a guess.
