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])

...

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.
