What are these errors?

Oh - yes, it seems the fix for bug #515023 only applies when called from
udev; so when called to reapply hdparm settings on a power event, or
from the (incorrect) acpi-support maintainer script, the problem still
exists.  Marking this bug as affecting hdparm as well.

> What are the consequences of booting with nohdparm?

Power management settings won't be applied to any of your hard drives
with this setting.
