Changelog for mondo-2.04_cvs_20050319-1sus91.x86_64.rpm :
Sat Mar 19 13:00:00 2005 Hugo Rabson 2.04_cvs_20050319

- test sanity of user-specified tempdir

Mon Jun 28 14:00:00 2004 Hugo Rabson 2.02
- instead of using \'dd\' to erase partition table, delete existing
partitions w/ the same call to fdisk that is used to create the
new partitions; this should avoids locking up the partition table
- set bootable partition in the above same call to fdisk, for
the same reason (avoids locking up the partition table)
- better software RAID support
- mount ext3 partitions as ext2 when restoring - better for Debian

- call \'mt\' to set block size to 32K before opening in/out tape
- updated mondo-prep.c to create each disk\'s partitions all at once
(one call per drive) instead of one call to fdisk per partition

use block size of INTERNAL_TAPE_BLK_SIZE, not TAPE_BLOCK_SIZE
