Hey, I'm glad that helped.
constant messages to the console can be quite a pain....

About the error messages themselves, though. I would check to see if you
enabled verbose logging in your kernel compilation. There is a choice there
-- I believe I saw it when I did mine so many ages ago -- to turn on or off
verbose logging. You might consider compiling again if it has been turned
on. You might also check the howto and the /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall script they
had you make to see if there are any logging options.

I'm just going off what I remember. Your mileage may vary. :-)
