Could you try modifying /etc/init.d/syslog to run
klogd -c 1 # That is a one at the end
And then do:
/etc/init.d/syslog restart
According to the klogd manual pages, console messages should be suppressed
by default. The above option says "send messages of priority less than one
to the console" - i.e. no messages.
If that doesn't help, try
klogd -f /var/tmp/klogd.out
and restart syslog

Next release, not now. SCSI emulation works and gives a consistent
tape interface - it also means one less option in the manager, and that
is our primary design goal - a simple user interface.

Excellent.

No, this will not happen in 4.1
