Philip, The changes in the 0.6 branch have been such that there should not have been breakage. It's more likely that what Tom is seeing is due to a missing filesystem label on one of his partitions (either ASTURW or ASTKD). Without seeing the console, we can only speculate. If the original install on that box was prior to 0.6.1, the filesystem labels may be missing.
