[PlanetCCRMA] Lacie Firewire drive on Planet CCRMA

[Mark Knecht]

I just checked my laptop under both Gentoo and Planet/FC2. In both
cases I mount using

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/audio1

My drives are both FAT32 & ext3. They both work. This is, however, a
custom kernel build from kernel.org and not a Planet kernel. If Fedora
changes (somehow) the drive names then things could be differnet.

Two things:

1) Make sure that ohci1394, ieee1394 and sbp2 are all loaded.

2) Check dmesg for info when you plug the drive in. It should say what
it's callign the drive, ala /dev/sda, etc. Mount your drive partition
from there.

FYI - none of my DVD's or CDRW's work under 2.6 or 2.4.

Good luck,
Mark
