I have installed SLS 1.03 onmy 386 but ran into a problem when preparing
the filesystem.

When executing mke2fs I got:

Could not find block to write inode table.

I had to reduce my partitin size from 80 to 70MB to get it to work. Once
I did this the mke2fs command worked fine and I was able to get the base
system installed. However, I want to use Xwindows and this need more than
the base system.

Any ideas about what went wrong?
