If not and you don't have console access at all, the best bet is probably to take a digital picture of your screen with the text focused such that you can see what's going on. I will be posting the most recent snapshot with ext4 support built-in shortly, perhaps you can wait to test that instead.

I think you're doing this incorrectly. If you want to specify host
range, you should be using the node/node syntax. For
ip-range/ip-range, you should provide it with ip addresses, not
hostnames.
Granted, there should probably be better sanity/error checking for the script.

Sorry Bernard I meant node/node, made a mistake above
so nodenode01-node10/node doesn't work (perl concatenation error)
and nodenode01,node02-node10/node works
Cheers
