DetailsDescription:I'm trying to install Arch linux using the VMware now. but this error blocks me. :(
I just followed the beginner wiki. Mounting the /dev/sda1 to /mnt makes a error all the time when I install the Archlinux(2013.06.01) newly. Should I wait for the new linux kernal version to solve this error? Additional info: * package version(s) Arch Linux 2013.06.01 * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce:

Reason for closing: Not a bug
Recent kernels issue the WRITE SAME command for zeroing. Not every driver, controller or disk supports it, so if it fails the kernel prints a message and reverts to the old manual method.
I want someone to note about this in beginner's guide.
The error bothers me every time I reboot the system after the installation.
The kernel devs chose to print this warning at error level instead of just debug.
