FW: SCSI-firewire

[Erick Calder]

ok.  the converter I¹m using is this:
http://www.ratocsystems.com/english/products/subpages/firerex1.html

the only thing I see happen to the log when I plug/unplug the drive is:

    Jun 20 02:38:48 arix kernel: ieee1394: Error parsing configrom for node
0-00:1023

as for the DLT drive I¹m using, I¹m not really sure.  it came out of a
Compaq Por-Liant. 

here¹s /proc/scsi/scsi

Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
  Vendor: WDC WD12 Model: 00BB-00DWA0      Rev: 15.0
  Type:   Direct-Access-RBC                ANSI SCSI revision: 04
Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 01 Lun: 00
  Vendor: WDC WD12 Model: 00BB-00DWA0      Rev: 15.0
  Type:   Direct-Access-RBC                ANSI SCSI revision: 04

(what you see attached are two Firewire drives I have connected which work
ok).

what other information can I provide?
