yes! could you or someone file it on bugs.dyne.org ?
the problem with bugs on the mailinglist is that if someone finds time
to fix things then it's hard to keep track of what has been discovered
so far....

anyway that is a bug of the graphical application only, if you use
mknest from commandline you can overcome the problem, just do

mknest -f /mnt/hd1/1/dyne/dyne.nst,128

to generate a nest of 128MB on your first partition, for instance.

ciao
