I just discovered the cause of these errors.  They correspond exactly to
when I ran "/sbin/sfdisk -l" to check my partitions.  I ran the command
again and it produced the same errors.  The server again is running a fresh
install of Enigma with all patches including kernel.  It is a VA Linux 2240
with (4) 18Gb Seagate SCSI hard disks attached to a Mylex eXtremeRaid 1100
controller.  I did not have any problems during the install and there don't
seem to be any problems accessing anything other than these messages showing
up.

Any guidance here would be greatly appreciated!
