Thanks a bunch, I was able to get it working.  I was expecting to need
a daemon or something for hotplugging.  It turns out the disk was NTFS
so there was no /dev/da0s1c, only a /dev/da0s1, which I did not
recognize immediately.

I only get:

Sep 24 14:45:01 wallenda kernel: fwohci0: BUS reset
Sep 24 14:45:01 wallenda kernel: fwohci0: node_id=0x8800ffc0, gen=9, non CYCLEMASTER mode
Sep 24 14:45:01 wallenda kernel: firewire0: 2 nodes, maxhop <= 1, cable IRM = 0 (me)
Sep 24 14:45:01 wallenda kernel: firewire0: root node is not cycle master capable
Sep 24 14:45:01 wallenda kernel: firewire0: bus manager 0 (me)

but that is probably because of the NTFS disk.

Is "root node is not cycle master capable" something I need to worry
about?
