Mmm... yes, the URL should be passed "as is" (without breaking) from your 
e-mail client to your browser.

Okay :-)

I think those errors come from the kernel itself, not from a particular 
package. 

You can try to pass the kernel some arguments to deal with that messages, 
as I said earlier ("pci=use_crs" was suggested by the log but there are 
others -many- you can try related to acpi or apic). If you open the URL 
for the Google search I passed before, you can see lots of suggestions 
awaiting for you to try :-)

I'd say those are normal entries for an ext4 filesystem if they occur at 
booting (for fsck tasks) and not once the system is loaded.
