"Localhost#" prompt strange after 10.1.5 update

[bossa nova]

So I updated my machine with the latest 10.1.5 update via Software Update and restarted my machine. Came up fine but I usually like to run "fsck" before updates and after a successful reboot.

When I booted the second time to run fsck my prompt was followed by something that I hadn't seen before. Here is what it looked like:

Localhost# UniNEnet :: MonitorLinkStatus - Link is up at 10 Mbps - Half Duplex
IOKernalDebugger: Debugger attached

Does anyone know why it would come up this way?

These are most likely messages which usually show up prior to the prompt, but this time the code which resulted in it (bringing up the ethernet card and starting the kernel's debugger) took a little longer, which is why they popped up after the prompt.

Those exact messages also show in a dmesg on my machine (well, except the ethernet is 100/full).

If the messages were negative in content, then I'd worry.
