I'm also trying to diagnose a problem with 9.1 detecting all my firewire drives. Just curious, are the two firewire drives daisy-chained together, or does each drive go to a separate firewire port on the Linux box?

One old one (one year), and one new one. I have Suse 9.1 and Mac OSX systems. The old drive can be seen on the mac and the linux box. The new drive can only be seen on the mac box. The new drive does not show up in a Yast hardware scan or /etc/fstab.
