Status: Working

Working fine after compiling a new kernel. I tested this with a external firewire harddrive.

Device Drivers  --->
    IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support  --->
        <M> IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support
        --- Device Drivers
        <M> Texas Instruments PCILynx support
        <M> OHCI-1394 support
        --- Protocol Drivers
        <M> OHCI-1394 Video support
        <M> SBP-2 support (Harddisks etc.)
        [ ] Enable Phys DMA support for SBP2 (Debug)
        <M> Ethernet over 1394
        <M> OHCI-DV I/O support
        <M> Raw IEEE1394 I/O support

Enabling SBP-2 support will let you be able to use firewire harddrives. Enabling OHCI-1394 Video support will let you be able to use cameras etc.
