The System : 1040sft, hd204 (4-6-10)

When my HD reached the storage limit, I decided to perform a reformatting.
I(t) assembled a lot of trash and I hoped to get rid of it.
Ok, That's a smart plan.
I saved the valuable files and started the hdx.prg program.
It seemed to be ok to this point.
But at the end of the procedure an Alert-Box flashed on the screen.
I was, let's say, a bit surprised.
The Alert-Box told me that there is a :
Patiton error on device alpha.
It did not use the word "alpha" but the corresponding greek letter.
Since i do not have the slightest idea what that means, i did continue
as if nothing happend.
And it worked.
But what does the alert-box mean ? Who knows ?
Or did I have a bad day ?
