I ended up with a invalid option for x.

Mine takes so long to go through because I have a 120GB SSD in there, and I only split it into 4
partitions (2 at 1GB each for TOS, and 1 at 20GB I think for the equivalent of / and the rest for
/home.  Not that I've done anything with /home..

I believe a while back in my attempt to fix this, I downloaded a newer build of the e2fsprogs
tarball.
