I can't really say what it means but I've seen something similar.  I had a
machine that did the samething.  Took me forever to get eD installed on it,
and when it finally took, those kernel oops' started happening and freezing
her up solid.  I replaced RAM, the hdd, and the fan in an attempt to rectify
it being that I had spares of those laying around.  I tried to compile a new
kernel and it got worse.  Instead of trying to replace every piece of
hardware in the machine to figure out what was going on, I installed on a
different machine.  The new machine has given me nary a problem.   

Sorry this wasn't very helpful.
