After making sure everything was backed-up to the hilt I tried it again and then rebooted. This time it seems the display issues didn't occur. Very strange...
On a related note, how do I know if SpotlightFS has been installed and more to the point how do I mount the SpotlightFS volume? It doesn't automatically mount and appear in my Volumes directory.
