Please help with suggestions on how I can eliminate some console spam.

my console and messages file is filling up with these entries:

Aug 25 08:10:18 bsdpc kernel: (da3:umass-sim0:0:0:3): READ CAPACITY.
CDB: 25 60

Aug 25 08:10:18 bsdpc kernel: (da3:umass-sim0:0:0:3): Unretryable error

It jusst repeats over and over again.  I need to get rid of them.

Question 1: How can I silence these messages so they stop repeating in
my logs?

Question 2: If they cannot be silenced, how can I keep them from taking
over my text console when I go into single user mode?

please help with suggestions,

thanks
Dan
