Have you tried this:
modprobe ohci1394
Let us know how it goes eh?
Hi,
I have a Sony Vaio GRX600. I have attached to it via the iLink (1394)port a hard drive inside a drive enclosure. Knoppix recognizes the 4 internal NTFS partitions on the Sony, but does not seem to recognize the external drive which is FAT32.
What can I do to help Knoppix recognize the external drive?
Thx,
tomber

It's not working so I am going to get a new copy of Knoppix--one without the cloop errors. I bought this thing of ebay because the isos I download never match in md5 and won't boot. I am going to start over and repost later. Thx.
