Hrm, I didn't see any of this on my box, which I thought was the same as
yours :)

The "unknown device type"? I see it all the time on lots of different
machines.

Yeah, that's weird.

That message is sort of strange. It's not necessarily referring to
memory allocation failing, but the port allocation failing in the SCSI
code. And that just means an error, like the failed to IDENTIFY above,
is occurring in the allocation path. It *can* also mean memory
allocation failure, I think, just not in this case.

I don't know much about the following errors, though, sorry.
