This just bit me. Had to change the magic numbers in minix.c to 9999, and all went well afterwards.
Seems like there are multiple failures here. It'd be nice to at least improve error messages, considering that there's at least a patch.
And, what motivation does anyone have to submit further patches, when such a good, logical, usable one as this -- doesn't even rate a response or patching?
