Re: error messages on boot

Do you have a /initrd directory? I do, and I have removed it once; but had to use a rescue-CD to add it :X I am not sure if it is still needed; but you might add it if it doesn't exist to see if it works

Re: error messages on boot

It's a known bug, vladuz, and it's completely harmless. Try not watching your screen at boot-time. tongue
