I'm running debian Sarge I have an external firewire hard drive, which I use to keep my music on. Easy to move between machines that way.
The problem, when the firewire bus/scsi emulation (?) freezes, the whole computer freezes., and 50% of the time after a reboot, the drive is inaccessible, giving this error during boot up; ieee1394: Node added: ID:BUS[0-01:1023] GUID[0030ffa7e0000fb1] ieee1394: The root node is not cycle master capable; selecting a new root node and rese tting... ieee1394: Node changed: 0-01:1023 -> 0-00:1023 ieee1394: Node changed: 0-00:1023 -> 0-01:1023 sbp2: $Rev: 1170 $ Ben Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> scsi1 : SCSI emulation for IEEE-1394 SBP-2 Devices ip1394: $Rev: 1175 $ Ben Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ip1394: eth1: IEEE-1394 IPv4 over 1394 Ethernet (fw-host0) ieee1394: sbp2: Error logging into SBP-2 device - login timed-out sbp2: probe of 0030ffa7e0000fb1-0 failed with error -16 ieee1394: Node changed: 0-01:1023 -> 0-00:1023 ieee1394: Node suspended: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[0030ffa7e0000fb1] ohci1394: fw-host0: SelfID received, but NodeID invalid (probably new bus reset occurre d): 0800FFC0 ieee1394: Error parsing configrom for node 0-00:1023 ieee1394: Node changed: 0-00:1023 -> 0-01:1023 ieee1394: Node resumed: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[0030ffa7e0000fb1] scsi3 : SCSI emulation for IEEE-1394 SBP-2 Devices ieee1394: sbp2: Error logging into SBP-2 device - login timed-out sbp2: probe of 0030ffa7e0000fb1-0 failed with error -16 here is the output of lsmod; eth1394 20840 0 sbp2 24136 0 ohci1394 35428 0 ieee1394 110872 3 eth1394,sbp2,ohci1394 scsi_mod 121292 8 sbp2,st,sr_mod,sg,usb_storage,ide_scsi,aic7xxx,sd_mod aic7xxx 206348 0 (which is used by my scsi controller) I've tried turning the external drive off, and then back on. Turning it off, and letting it sit for some time (more than 10 minutes at a time) Still refuses to be recognized. Any ideas, or suggestions? Thanks -- Rodney D.
