ok... well, slowly I get into mindi... the result of SizeOfPartition() seems to be ok, the created mountlist.txt by MakeMountlist() is ok, too. so the next question would be: which part of mondo/minid tries to write the table? mondorestore I guess... if someone would help me to speed up gettin into mondo/mindi: any suggestions are welcome.
