--------------------------------------
Great, thanks for confirming, Colin.
+1, the latest patch looks good to me. I'm going to commit this momentarily.

> Most users store multiple copies of the FSImage in order to prevent
> catastrophic data loss if a hard disk fails. However, our image loading code
> is currently not set up to start reading another FSImage if loading the first
> one does not succeed. We should add this capability.
> We should also be sure to remove the FSImage directory that failed from the
> list of FSImage directories to write to, in the way we normally do when a
> write (as opopsed to read) fails.
