These four messages are the first four ones that appear after the boot loader
set EIP to the kernel entry point. The first four printks, if you want so. And
apparently, the first four appearing in dmesg, obviously.

Maybe some more info helps (from /var/log/boot.msg, a copy of dmesg):

Inspecting /boot/System.map-2.6.13-TP1
Loaded 24854 symbols from /boot/System.map-2.6.13-TP1.
Symbols match kernel version 2.6.13.
No module symbols loaded - kernel modules not enabled.
