The first one is the kernel, which is itself. the second is the linux image,
for running linux binaries, which you probably responded yes to, when you
did your initial install.

You can permanently disable that, by adding the following line to your
/etc/rc.conf

linux_enable="NO"

Or if it's there and says "YES", change it to "NO"

vn is used for a lot of things, type 'man vn' to read about it, though I
don't think it's used for anything by default.
