burdicda, unfortunately most devs don't have build labs filled with every possible hard drive/mobo combination, so they depend on user feedback to deal with bugs.

Would be great if some way was found to give heavy duty build lab testing to every new version of any major open source application, but I guess for now just having users give good bug reports is as good as we can hope for.

I had the same experience as you though, 0.1 worked on one system when 0.2 did not, but overall the stability and range of supported systems seems to be consistently expanding version to version, though of course bugs will creep in version to version.

have to give a 'thanks' to the gparted livecd guys, good idea, implementation gets better all the time.
