Hello Jonathan,<br>
<br>
thank you very much for your reply. What I find strange is that these <br>
complaints only occur after installing mate or gnome. Without mate or <br>
gnome there are no complaints. Also, in a previous post I attached the <br>
boot messages from a verbose boot. They additionally spewed this out:<br>
<br>
md1: invalid primary partition table: no magic.<br>
<br>
I guess this has something to do with the fact that after installing <br>
DragonFly, I used OpenBSD to change a partition type on the same hard <br>
drive to A6 and Linux to change another partition type to 8e00. Maybe <br>
these manipulations by tools from other OSs have somehow changed the <br>
partition table so that DragonFly now complains?<br>
<br>
Anyway, apart from these complaints the system works perfectly. Unless I <br>
get further clues, I am going to ignore the complaints.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
Martin<br>
