    Time needed to erase 250GB

    News from the front: re-partitionning (1 partition) took 30 seconds after the forced-quit, since that, re-installation completed and everything seems OK... I'll update if we have other problems... And I read somewhere in the forum that there were known problems about HD, can you tell me more?
