This probably dosen't apply to you but when I first updated from AFS
to PFS2 my new partitions reported errors when I used Diskvalid.
It turned out that the PFS2 installer hadn't updated diskvalid and the
old version of diskvalid was reporting errors simply because it didn't
fully understand PFS2. After copying the new diskvalid from the PFS CD
my 'errors' disapeared. I should add that the same partitions are
working perfectly 20 months later.
