They are the base of development bugreports and discussions.
The other releases are frozen and will only be changed if a fatal
problem occurs.

OK, could you test this patch:
------- btcflash.c -------
*** /tmp/sccs.Aiaqiy Fri May 14 11:47:47 2004
--- btcflash.c Fri May 14 11:47:24 2004
***************
*** 273,279 ****
--- 273,281 ----
sleep(50); /* Let drive sit for a while before bothering it */
+ scgp->silent++;
wait_unit_ready(scgp, 300);
+ scgp->silent--;
if (inquiry(scgp, (char *)inq, 36) < 0)
return (1);
It should run it "more silently".
