The resize2fs on RHEL5 does not support ext4.  Your error message is the 
one reported when you try to resize an ext4 filesystem with ext2/ext3 
tools.  You need to either install e4fsprogrs and use resize4fs (and 
e4fsck), or do the resize in the virtual machine you are apparently 
running a newer OS in.
