A bit of a case of RTFM I'm afraid, you need to either have the rom update
file removed, or change the SetPatch line in your startup-sequence
I think the line should go
setpatch QUIET SKIPROMUPDATES scsi.device
According to my FastATA readme... I use a PowerFlyer with WB3.5, and I
originally had a bit of fun and games setting it up.
