@Damien, my partitioning was everything in one place and ext3 rather than ext4, but even during creation of ext3 filesystem the progress was unremarkable. It was difficult to tell if it was hung. I used top(1) and "cat /proc/diskstats" in a terminal to verify things were still happening. No disk indicator LED on the Macmini4,1. Perhaps this hints at a throughput issue.
