Very observant, James. The differences can be easily explained though.
It's because the startup-messages where from five reboots earlier.
In an attempt to fix the problem, I told the motherboard to assign
specific IRQs to specific PCI slots. This caused the IRQ allocation
to change. Sorry for the confusion.
