This is solved by mondo 2.2.8 + mindi 2.0.5 that are available upstream as .deb's.
One proviso: /usr/sbin/mindi must be changed at line #53 and 'ide-gd_mod' added! (Watch the spelling). If you don't do this then no IDE disks will be found. The nice boxes of ncurses are messed up. I'll close the bug. Hugo Vanwoerkom
