The devices for block-major-33,34,56,57,8 are all IDE and SCSI devices.
33 is the third IDE HD/CD on the system.  (See 
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt for more information)

I think the first thing to try would be to look at your snmpd.conf file and
see if you are trapping hard drive statistics.  It may be gathering the traps
for the first two IDE devices fine, but thinks there are four more devices
and bombs because they don't exist.  It's been a long time since I played
with snmp, so I'm sorry I can't be of much more help.

Hopefully this gets you started.
