Well, the "geometry" warning does not show up when saying "df -k" in
xterm. Neither does "fsck -n". Are you sure that the "geometry"
warning which issued every night, comes from one of those commands?

I can simulate the warning by mounting one of the AmigaOS partitions.
Also during initial booting, the warning shows up.

Yes ... gonna do that, but the pixel error is still a bug. Is there
still any CV64 programmer around here ... (Bernd Ernesti, Michael
Teske, ...) ?
