These messages are displayed for diagnostic purposes in the unlikely event
that a user's flashcard reader would cause problems. The da0:umass-*
messages are indicating that there are no flashcards plugged in at this
point of time. If you have the slots filled when you plug in the device or
while the system starts up, you won't see these messages.
