Bug Description

I have no useful details to provide sorry.

This is a QA test install only.. with packages & VERY MINOR change(s) having taken place on it ...

(on subsequent boot; these messages are now appearing & requesting me to file.. I'm in the middle of another QA-test install in another partition on this system & was only booting this system to ensure the newly installed xubuntu.mantic didn't impact here).

I'm going to mark this incomplete

I suspect the issue is a consequence of a bad install - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calamares/+bug/2023000

Regardless, if it's a real issue, it'll be re-filed...
