Mounting Firewire Drive

Postby bobw » Jul 15th, '13, 00:52

More precisely, CAN'T mount firewire drive.

Code: Select all
lsmod | grep fire
firewire_ohci          44411  0
firewire_core          64477  1 firewire_ohci
crc_itu_t              12707  1 firewire_core


Code: Select all
lspci -v
.....
06:00.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): JMicron Technology Corp. IEEE 1394 Host Controller (prog-if 10 [OHCI])
        Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 3603
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
        Memory at da100000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2K]
        Memory at da100d00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128]
        Memory at da100c80 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128]

        Capabilities: [94] MSI: Enable- Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit-
        Kernel driver in use: firewire_ohci
...

I see that there is no firewire_sbp2 loaded.

The config for this kernel (from /boot):
cat config | grep FIRE
CONFIG_FIREWIRE=m
CONFIG_FIREWIRE_OHCI=m
CONFIG_FIREWIRE_SBP2=m
CONFIG_FIREWIRE_NET=m
CONFIG_FIREWIRE_NOSY=m
CONFIG_ATM_FIRESTREAM=m
CONFIG_ADAPTEC_STARFIRE=m
CONFIG_DVB_FIREDTV=m
CONFIG_DVB_FIREDTV_INPUT=y
CONFIG_SND_USB_6FIRE=m
CONFIG_SND_FIREWIRE=y
CONFIG_SND_FIREWIRE_LIB=m
CONFIG_SND_FIREWIRE_SPEAKERS=m
CONFIG_FIREWIRE_SERIAL=m
# CONFIG_FIREWIRE_OHCI_REMOTE_DMA is not set

Anyone?

TIA.

The output of dmesg might give you a clue. I'd expect any external drive to show up as a block device /dev/sdx.
