As far as I know it is. Acpi is from the sf acpi site and firewire is
what comes with the regular kernel.

If the problem appears to be acpi then you could try turning that off by
including the option "acpi=off" in the kernel boot line in
/boot/grub/grub.conf. 

I don't know about the firewire drives, what error do you see?

(there will be a new "official" kernel release probably latter today,
the new kernel has been available for a while in the planetedge
repository).
