My mistake, sorry.

I built the filesystem with setup-storage, using version FAI version 
3.3.4 and for sda1 a size of '512', with no unit.
And then ran 3.3.5-experimental2 to resize /usr, with the same size of 
'512' for sda1, which seems to give a different result.

I have done it again using a size of 512MiB, and it works as expected: 
the volume is resized, but the filesystem is not.
