regarding file size
I see -size 1,95 GB (2 097 155 946 bytes) and size on disk 1,95 GB (2 097 156 096 bytes)
What does the first size refer to, if not size on disk? Where else does the file exist other than "on disk"? I guess the "on disk" figure could be rounded up to the next 4k boundary or something (it's a multiple of 4096).
I've no idea why the import isn't working for you. I've not heard of anyone else having that problem. I hope the bootstrap.dat file isn't corrupted. Did anyone else try using it recently? If so, how did it go?
My bootstrap matches; however, I am really having a problem syncing via the strap as well.
It keeps simply stopping from using the file and goes to live network sync.
Keeping a point of the log each point, I am quoting some from the various restarts of the bootstrap...

- Uhhh, jumps back nearly 600 blocks.
Then out of order and some from bootstrap and some live. So, close the client yet again.

It did it again.
1781476
Basically, I can't get it to sync myself. Several attempts and confirmed the sha256 of the bootstrap matches the dooglus post.
