I ran resize_reiserfs -s -1024M on a ReiserFS partition for testing.
The partition resized OK, mounted OK, umounted OK. Then I tried to
restore the original filesystem size, but resize_reiserfs reported that
it couldn't read the on-disk bitmap. I ran reiserfsck and it reported:
Zero bit found in on-disk bitmap after the last valid bit.
and said I could fix it with --fix-fixable. I ran reiserfsck
--fix-fixable and it fixed the problem. I then ran resize_reiserfs on
the same partition to restore the original size with no problems. I
repeated this exercise to make sure it wasn't a fluke, with the same
results.
Thanks,
John Dalbec

Thank you for the report, I see the problem and I am fixing it.
