Folks might want to wait for 4.1.0-4. I'm preparing it now.
Several bugs have already been filed; no one needs to add to them. The
problem is understood, and the fix has been written and tested.
If you already have 4.1.0-3 installed successfully, there is nothing to
worry about.

In order to facilitate this, I thought I would partition the drive and
