Default Powersteering Noise after drive belt change..

On a 03 Honda Odyssey, I just changed the drive belt without much issue. Once I started the van, I noticed a whining noise as if there was no fluid in the PS reservoir. Then the existing fluid started to bubble out of the PS reservoir. Any thoughts???? BTW, before changing the drive belt everything worked fine.

Bubbling means air is in the system,not sure why all of a sudden it would develop air but here's how to bleed it out.This is the procedure used after changing out the pump or rack and pinion.Jack the front wheels off the ground,with the engine off turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and then to the right repeatedly until you don't see the fluid bubbling in the reservoir,then start her up see if she quiets down,may need to repeat this procedure a few times.
