I installed openSuse 11.4 yesterday, and am getting system error messages (/var/log/messages) as follows. The 4 Hardware Error messages are repeating every few minutes. I have no idea what this means. Can anyone clarifiy?

Thanks Markus, that was the problem. Great tip. I had the non-oss CD in one drive, and the openSuse DVD in the other. It was the CD. Not sure why this happened on this machine though, the same CD did not show errors on another 11.4 install (different box). Perhaps the CD drive is getting old? In any case problem solved.
