What do all these error messages mean?

Hi,

I am trying to set up mol.  I had tried to set it up earlier but it 
didn't work well (It ran quite slowly and wouldn't open to the screen size.)

Now I have uninstalled the old version of mol, which I had from the 
YellowDogLinux 2.2 install CD, and have installed the latest version 
from the mol.org webside.  I did molvconfig and then tried startmol -a 
and this is the result:

Is there anybody who can make sense out of this and tell me what to do 
now, in order to get the mol to run?  Ideal would it be if when starting 
mol I could choose if I wanted to startup into /dev/hda10  "Mac OS 9" or 
/dev/hda10 "NET, UTI, &DOC".  Both partitions have OS 9.2.2.  The other 
partitions do not have system folders.

Thanks for any help!!

Stefan
