Hi, So I executed these commands as root: linux # mknod -m 666 /dev/raw1394 c 171 0 linux # insmod ieee1394 Using /lib/modules/2.4.16/kernel/drivers/ieee1394/ieee1394.o linux # insmod pcilynx Using /lib/modules/2.4.16/kernel/drivers/ieee1394/pcilynx.o linux # insmod raw1394 Using /lib/modules/2.4.16/kernel/drivers/ieee1394/raw1394.o linux # insmod sbp2 Using /lib/modules/2.4.16/kernel/drivers/ieee1394/sbp2.o All looks fine. I can see the drive on /dev/raw1394 using gscanbus. However, when I try linux # mount -t iso9660 /dev/sr0 /mnt mount: /dev/sr0 is not a valid block device When I do dmesg | less I find the error message: ieee1394: sbp2: Driver forced to serialize I/O (serialize_io = 1) ieee1394: sbp2: Error logging into SBP-2 device - login timed-out ieee1394: sbp2: sbp2_login_device failed Stumped again. Thanks for your help, Michael! -Kim

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a firewire cdrw on my Blue and White G3. I have installed the latest and greatest kernel from the SuSE ftp site (2.4.16-55), and have followed the directions at http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/olh_ppc_sleep.html.

I follow the following steps as root:

linux# modprobe ieee1394 (works) linux# modprobe ohci1394

For the internal firewire port in b&w g3 you have to use pcilynx instead of ohci1394. Please tell me if you succeed. I'm interessted in any device, which will work with the internal firewire port in b&w g3. I tried to connect an external HD to this port but had yet no success.

Grüßli, Micha
