What did you do, and what is your configuration? Are you using LVM?

Try ext2fs command.. u will find the details in man page.

What?

I think maybe you want to increase the size of a partition to fill some empty space on your hard drive? parted maybe, or gparted if you want a GUI. It would help if we knew what Linux you are using and had details about what you are trying to do.
