AX, BX, CX, and DX are the 2 byte registers in your x86 Processor the
numbers are the Hex offset of each register (I think), or they could be the
data currently in the register. It shouldn't cause a problem, but I have no
idea why they are showing when you boot.

Sounds like LILO isn't installed.....or perhaps it just defaults to linux
without asking.
