In this case the head of the log might be more interesting. My guess is
that the server didn't find the /vicepa partition in /vice/db/vicetab
and as a result we failed to create the initial root volume.

That's a good indication that there are no known partitions on the
server, otherwise it would have looked more like

    V_BindToServer: binding to host telemann
    P/vicepa Htelemann T12afa7c F12a72f0
    W/.0 I1000001 H1 P/vicepa m0 M0 U4 W1000001 C415af94e D415af94e B0 A51
    GetVolumeList finished successfully

Where the first line indicates that there is a partition /vicepa and the
second line show that we have a writeable volume replica named '/.0'
(which is the first replica of a replicated volume named '/')

All the other info on these lines are things like how many block are in
available/inuse, if there is a quota set and the last modification
timestamp etc.
