Hello,

My own recent experiences to add!

Same here.

I found that the problem disappeared after I remade the partition with
        mke2fs -o hurd -b 4096 
This sets the block size to 4096 while the default is 1024. Is that
the correct diagnosis?

Other than that I would say the install went smoother (and more than
a bit faster) than an install of Debian GNU/Linux 0.99 on a 386.
(My current install is on a PIII ;-).

Thanks and regards,

Kapil.
