Firewire on Fedora 7: summary of troubles

["Michel Salim" <michel salim gmail com>]

There are some regression in the present development tree when it
comes to Firewire mass storage (sbp2) support:

- kernel revision 1.2919.fc7:
-- sbp2 loaded at boot time, but no drive detected
-- after unloading and reloading sbp2, the drive is detected, but
gnome-volume-manager still does not see it after logging in

- kernel revision 1.2922.fc7:
-- loading sbp2 causes kernel panic
