    Its a command. Run it in a shell.

    Nahh... Since you are booting with a kernel 2.4.14 you just cant. You
    will need to rebuild the ISO[1] with a custom kernel that includes the
    patch for this card.

    Once the box is installed, again, change the kernel and they will go
    away.

    [1] Again.. Please.. can someone point out how to rebuilt SuSE's cds
