Short answer: no. These messages tell you about your scsi disk. "sr" is generally used instead of "sd" for removable media, although some of the messages below seem to indicate that /dev/sda might be a removable drive on your system (?)... So if I guess that you have a real scsi bus on your system, am I right? I suppose it could be a ZIP disk, some of these came with their own scsi controller (ie, the non-parallel-interfaced ones) which might get mapped to sda. Maybe you could send along the contents of /proc/bus/usb/devices when your palm is connected; I think this is the same info provided by 'usbview' although that is a GUI program.
