I had 786432 for hda6 and 917504 for hda7. AFAIK, both of them worked in the past.

Most probably, version 1:20040915.dfsg.1-2, if I trust the timestamps for the .list files at /var/lib/dpkg/info, who show the last upgrades were made on 2005-04-30 (for hda6) and 2005-04-15 (for hda7). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
