Hi.  While installing NetBSD 1.1 I noticed the following warnings:

>warning found rdb->secpercyl(166) != rdb->nsectors(42) * rdb->nheads(4)
>warining lp->d_sparespercyl(2) not multiple of lp->ntracks(4)

These come up after the system asks:
   Do you want to continue with installation? [n] y

It then scans my hard drives and comes up with those warnings.  Following 
this it suggests that I use my sd0 partition to install root on.  If I 
consent it will format root and create an fstab for it (Following this it 
will format and create an fstab for /usr as if nothing was wrong.)

My question is: Should I be concerned about the warnings?  Do I need to
repartition my hard drives?  Just in case info is needed, here's the
output of the rdbinfo untility (in the NetBSD-1.1/amiga/Utilities
subdirectory):
