version 7.2 GENERIC kernel on bootup, dmesg shows plip0: WARNING: using obsoleted IFF_NEEDSGIANT flag Is this significant? Of what? Then, GEOM_LABEL: bunch of labels removed.... Same question? I find nothing directly related to the plip0 warning on the Net - what is it and why is it? And how to I get rid of the GEOM_LABEL: stuff - it seems unnecessary... TIA PJ
