Oh, just saw Jesse's reply and read further up the thread... The

was the new firewire stack, not Fedora, right?
Yes, thanks.
FWIW, I do have a few firewire hard drives and a firewire dvd burner
that all work just fine with the new stack, haven't had any issues
whatsoever. (anything firewire that touches libavc1394, libraw1394 or
libiec61883 is another issue though...)
Do you know if a firewire drive will work reliably as a raid1 mirror
with a matching internal drive? With the older stack it isn't
recognized in time at boot-up to automatically connect the md device.
You can add it and the re-sync generally works if the partition is not
too busy, but it tends to be failed out of the array if it is left
connected when the partition is very active.
