So I just bought this refurbished laptop with Mint pre-installed, and it's showing these error messages when booting. Boots just fine afterwards and seems to work normally. Is this normal? Should I get my money back, or should I do a fresh install?

In the 15 years I have used Linux I haven't had a single PC where I wouldn't get some startup errors. If the system boots and everything works, you can ignore them.
