Multiple entries in /etc/fstab, where the device name (e.g. //server/share) is identical, although the mount points for the two mounts differ, yield an error when calculating the partition size in SizeOfPartition?() of mindi.
Multiple entries may occur e.g. for CIFS if mounting the same share as different users on different mount points.
Attaching suggested patch which assumes that all mounts of a device share a common amount of free space (however, is this true in the case of quotas on shares?).

Please run that command by hand and examine /var/log/mindi.log
for more information. Perhaps your /etc/fstab file is insane.
Perhaps Mindi's MakeMountlist() subroutine has a bug. We'll see.

FYI, I have gzipped the log and saved it to /var/cache/mondo/MA.log.gz.
Mondo has aborted.

Type 'less /var/log/mondoarchive.log' to see the output log
So, running mindi manually:
sprinkle:~# mindi --makemountlist /tmp/a.txt
Your mountlist will look like this:
