Cause

Starcat hardware issue involving the absence of connections for USB. Starcat was never intended to support USB devices. These errors are harmless and can be repressed by adding an entry to /etc/system.

Errors regarding feature that is not supported by SF15k

Solution

Adding the following to the /etc/system file repressed the error messages:
exclude: drv/ohci
