I did nothing special, just what I do normally when I get a computer or
hard disk.
Wipe it with gparted and set up my partitions: /root, /home, /usr, /var
etc., etc.. Allow grub to install.
Then put in the netinstall disk, install a basic system with that.
Reboot and start using it adding whatever packages I need as I require
them.
That's it.
Not difficult I don't think, and I update and upgrade about once a
week, and have never had that error message previously.
No worries. Obviously something changed in the last upgrade. Not
something that I did, because I didn't do anything. [laughing]
Anyway, it was just a curiosity, not a bug as far as I can see because
it boots and everything works.
Be well,
Charlie
