Thanks for your reply.  I noticed that your firewire drive is found 
during boot:

But my drive is not found during boot.  I have to unplug/plug my 
firewire cable before my drive is recognized.  Although I just found the 
fwcontrol man page and learned about the -r option.  I ran it and my 
drive was found as well:

WARNING: driver fw should register devices with make_dev() (dev_t = "#fw/0")
fwohci0: Initiate bus reset
fwohci0: BUS reset

da2: 76351MB (156368016 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 9733C)

But what is this "WARNING"?  I don't recall seeing it on the unplug/plug 
sequence.  Maybe that has something to do with my problem?

Thanks,

Drew
