[Firewire-users] Not able to connect to firewire drive

[Chapman, Kyle]

we use lacie firewire disks and havent had problems...  our cards are based on the ti chipset (adaptec 4300 cards)
youve got the correct kernel installed from the oss site?  it may also be the newer disks are more restrictive in regards to simultaneous access...

Greg,  Did you get anywhere with this?  I'd be great to report back to the
list what you ended up with.  Were the PPA firewire cards the culprit?  Or
was the LaCie d2 drive incompatible?

Hello,

I had a usb2/firewire drive that was not recognized, so I ordered a 
LaCie d2 120GB firewire drive with oxford 911 chipset.  Now when I 
modprobe ohci1394 and modprobe sbp2 I get following:

ohci1394_0: OHCI-1394 1.0 (PCI): IRQ=[3]  MMIO=[fe9de800-fe9defff]  Max 
Packet=[2]
scsi2 : SCSI emulation for IEEE-1394 SBP-2 Devices
Starting timer : 0 0
blk: queue c34f4814, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff)
ieee1394: Device added: Node[00:1023]  GUID[001106000000d970]  [Linux 
OHCI-1394]
ieee1394: Host added: Node[01:1023]  GUID[001106000000db00]  [Linux 
OHCI-1394]
ohci1394_0: Transmit packet size 8 is too big
ieee1394: sbp2: Error querying logins to SBP-2 device - timed out
ieee1394: sbp2: Device does not support any more concurrent logins
ieee1394: Device added: Node[02:1023]  GUID[00d04b3b160c7490]  [LaCie 
Group SA  ]


I have added the following to modules.conf on both nodes -
options sbp2 sbp2_exclusive_login=0
post-install sbp2 insmod sd_mod
post-remove sbp2 rmmod sd_mod

The firewire cards that I am using are PPA Inc. - 4 port IEEE 1394 
400mbps interface cards and I am using 2 Dell Optiplex GX270 with RHAS3.

Thanks
