Maxtor 5000XT Firewire/USB2 Drive

[Daniel O'Connor]

Hi,
I am trying to get FreeBSD 4.7 to connect to a Maxtor 5000XT drive, but I get the following when connecting it ->
Apr 26 09:19:43 chowder /kernel: fwohci0: node_id = 0xc000ffc1, CYCLEMASTER mode
Apr 26 09:19:43 chowder /kernel: firewire0: 2 nodes, maxhop <= 1, cable IRM = 1 (me)
Apr 26 09:19:50 chowder /kernel: fwohci0: BUS reset
Apr 26 09:19:50 chowder /kernel: fwohci0: node_id = 0xc000ffc1, CYCLEMASTER mode
Apr 26 09:19:50 chowder /kernel: firewire0: 2 nodes, maxhop <= 1, cable IRM = 1 (me)
Apr 26 09:19:50 chowder /kernel: firewire0: New S400 device ID:0010b920001f41e1
Apr 26 09:19:50 chowder /kernel: firewire0: Device unknown spec

Whereas with a more generic (working) enclosure I get the following ->
Apr 26 09:22:51 chowder /kernel: fwohci0: node_id = 0x8000ffc0, non CYCLEMASTER mode
Apr 26 09:22:51 chowder /kernel: firewire0: 2 nodes, maxhop <= 1, cable IRM = 0 (me)
Apr 26 09:22:51 chowder /kernel: firewire0: New S400 device ID:00048302e200995f
Apr 26 09:22:51 chowder /kernel: firewire0: Device SBP-II
Apr 26 09:22:51 chowder /kernel: da0 at sbp0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
Apr 26 09:22:51 chowder /kernel: da0: <Oxford 911D 0037> Fixed Simplified Direct Access SCSI-4 device
Apr 26 09:22:51 chowder /kernel: da0: 50.000MB/s transfers
Apr 26 09:22:51 chowder /kernel: da0: 190734MB (390625000 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 24315C)

Would this imply the Maxtor is saying it isn't an SBP device?

I do not have the latest MFC firewire code, and I will be trying that next, but I thought I'd
send a heads up first and see if anyone has tried this before :)

According to this page http://www.linux1394.org/cgi-bin/view_device.cgi?id=458 it works under
Linux but the 2.4.20 machine doesn't appear to grok it (and I'm no Linux guru, so no idea what
the problem is there)

ohci1394_0: SelfID received outside of bus reset sequence
ieee1394: Node 01:1023 has non-standard ROM format (0 quads), cannot parse
ieee1394: sbp2: Logged into SBP-2 device

ieee1394: Node 00:1023 changed to 01:1023

Any hints appreciated :)
