How-To?

Hi

If you attached firewire cable into card on PC, read messages.

tail -f /var/log/messages

On your kernel must have this support:

# SCSI peripherals
device          scbus           # SCSI bus (required)
device          da              # Direct Access (disks)
device          pass            # Passthrough device (direct SCSI access)

and

# FireWire support
device          firewire        # FireWire bus code
device          sbp             # SCSI over FireWire (Requires scbus and da)

mount /dev/da0s1c /mnt/fw-disk
