Hello there,

I am running into a problem upon installating the current Linux-Athena,
using the athena.img from /mit/bootkit/rhlinux.  After I fdisk the hard
drive, mke2fs (ver 1.27) halts while "writing superblocks and filesystem
accounting information:", right after it finishes writing inode tables.

The hard drive I try to partition is a Maxtor 90845D4, 8GB.

If you know anything on this matter, could you please help?  Thanks.

Richard
