Details

Description: I plugged in the external HDD with ieee1394 cable and didn't do anything.
Load the modules (which changed name from 2.6 kernel to 3.x kernel)

modprobe firewire-core
modprobe firewire-ohci

Did the above again and got this on messages.log:

Oct 31 23:14:49 localhost kernel: [81278.776827] firewire_core: phy config: card 1, new root=ffc0, gap_count=5

There are no /dev/sdxx for the partitions of the HDD

Note: 2.6 kernel used to work fine.

Additional info:
linux 3.0.7-1

lsmod | grep firewire
firewire_ohci 29586 0
firewire_core 50360 1 firewire_ohci
crc_itu_t 1297 1 firewire_core

Steps to reproduce: Load modules, connect a ieee1394 external hdd

you need to load firewire-sbp2 too.
