(For those who can't tell, /dev/sda==/dev/build_space2/lvol1 is a 45 gig firewire drive
attached to my powerbook pismo).


Due to various stupidity (some of the firewire drive bridges,
including this one, have a 128k max transfer size limitation, and do
the wrong thing when presented with larger transfers), i'm only
getting 7 meg a second on the drive right now.
It'll improve.


But, look at the linux1394-devel list for all of my patches to
ohci1394, and the SBP-2 patches you'll need.
