[erlang-questions] Subscribing to {inconsistent_database, starting_partitioned_network, Node}

[Simon MacMullen]

So I need to invoke mnesia:subscribe(system) after starting Mnesia:

1> mnesia:subscribe(system).
{error,{
}}
2> application:start(mnesia).
ok
3> mnesia:subscribe(system).
{
}

...but as far as I can see, starting Mnesia can cause 
{inconsistent_database, starting_partitioned_network, Node} to be emitted.

So what am I supposed to do if I am interested in subscribing to this event?

Cheers, Simon
