Just a clue for those folks who saw the 4.8 announcement say "Firewire support" but wanted to know how to get it to happen. You need to recompile the kernel with the following two lines in your configuration: device firewire # Firewire bus code device sbp # SCSI over Firewire (Requires scbus and da) (Found this in the LINT file, but not in GENERIC). I compiled this, tossed in a generic Firewire card, and it worked first time, adding the attached hard drive as device da0. --Paul Hoffman
