This really looks like a SCSI problem. Maybe a bug in the 2.4.5 kernel
SCSI driver for your controller or a problem with cabling/termination?

I once had problems with a 53c800 controller and disconnect/reconnect
(which isn't supported by the Mustek scanners) which were "solved" by
using `options ncr53c8xx ncr53c8xx="disc:n"'. I don't know if this is
related.

That's ok. The other SCSI devices work without any messages in syslog?
