Marcus, can you describe how to partition a disk so as to see this?
I don't remember since when I am seeing this, because it caused no harm. It may well be that I am seeing this since a long time. My partition setup on hdc is as follows: hdc1, primary, 128 MB, Linux swap hdc2, primary, ~4 GB, Linux native (my home) hdc3, primary, ~1 GB, Linux native (used for Hurd devel) hdc4, extended, ~8 GB, contains the following: hdc5, logical, ~1 GB, Linux native (for Hurd) hdc6, logical, ~1 GB, Linux native (Hurd ROOT partition currently) some other logical partitions I don't quite remember. As it complains about "hd24", I assume the extended partition is teh culprit. Thanks, Marcus -- "The purpose of Free Software is Free Software.
