There are valid reasons to run vinum on removeable media so it should
not exclude them.

vinums read_drive_label triggers this.
It tries to read the label and produces the given errors if the drive is
not ready - nothing wrong IMHO.
I see the same messages for an MO drive if there is no media inserted.
And I see these errors for a fixed drive with media errors.
It is just unavoidable to have a single error for each drive and I don't
know for shure why it happens several times - maybe vinum probes for
multiple partitions.
