This is indeed a bug, and it has also been reported by at least one more person on the mailing list. We should finally have a fix ready in our experimental builds. If you'd be willing to test these, its 4.0~beta2+experimental48 that includes the fix for the first time. I've already asked for testing on the mailing list, but if you could give that version a try, that would help a lot in pushing this fix into the next official version. Thanks a lot, Michael PS.: Please see http://wiki.fai-project.org/wiki/Main_Page#getting_FAI for more information about the experimental builds.
