Just to explain the background of these messages...

We did some changes to the partition table (390-like VTOC). One
of them was a change of the data set names, which are visible to
OS/390 or z/OS and represent the Linux partitions
(e.g. LINUX.VVOLSER.PART0001.NATIVE).

They contain a counter part, which starts now counting with
PART0001 instead of PART0000. We got several requests to change
this.

To be compatible, fdasd changes the old data set names to the new
ones and prints the messages below.
