I cannot figure out what device I should use to mount a firewire DVD burner. All the IEEE1394 drivers load and the DVD is recognized and attached to the IEEE bus. gscanbus shows it and the controller. Among the things I have tried are:
mount /dev/sbpcd /dev/dvd
mount /dev/srx /dev/dvd (x = 1 .. 3)
mount /dev/sbc /dev/dvd
mount /dev/sbc1 /dev/dvd
I get messages that either the device is not a valid block device or that it does not exist. This is driving me NUTS!! I know it is something stupid. Please, please, go ahead and embrass me by telling me.
You would think so but I don't see anything that looks like a device name for the DVD in either file.
Are there specific device names associated with the IEEE1394 SBP-2 module?
In /proc/ide, I can see /hdc and /hdd, the interrnal ide optical drives. The optical drives are also listed by model in /proc/scsi/scsi but there is no entry for the DVD.
There is no /proc/ieee1394 or /proc/sbp2 but there is a /proc/scsi/sbp2. What it contains appears to relate to the ieee controller and not the device that is attached to it.
/var/log/dmesg does contain several lines from the ieee sbp2 module indicating that it "logged into" the DVD but doesn't show anything like a /dev name.
My problem was that the device was not "registered." I could't get the rescan-scsi-bus.sh script to run. Regardless of who owns the file, I got permission problems but I was able to do
Hi,
I'm also stuck with my external IEEE1394 HP DVD200e.
Doing an "modprobe ohci1394", /var/log/messages gives:

But I don't know what device to mount:
oshi:/tmp # mount /dev/sr1 /mnt/cdrom
mount: /dev/sr1: unknown device
oshi:/tmp # mount /dev/sg1 /mnt/cdrom
mount: /dev/sg1 is not a block device
oshi:/tmp # mount /dev/scd1 /mnt/cdrom
mount: /dev/scd1: unknown device
oshi:/tmp # mount /dev/scd2 /mnt/cdrom
mount: /dev/scd2: unknown device
Does the "scsi: unknown type 31" mean what I think it does?
Thanks for any hints!
SuSE-8,1, 2.4.19 (SuSE Kernel), HP DVD200e (external IEEE1394/USB2 CD/DVD+RW burner). USB is fine but only 1.1 since my Notebook - Dell Latitude C840 has only USB-1.1.
By loading "modprobe raw1394" I can start gscanbus.
Selecting the "S400 HP" device, I get:

When installing my Firewire Hard Drive, I had to add the following to the /etc/devices/drivers file:
50 ieee1394
51 ohci1394
52 sbp2
Save, rescan and restart.
Your DVD should then show up under /dev/cdroms with a mount point /mnt/cdrom1 or similar. Then add to your /etc/fstab file.
I think the raw1394 module is only required for digital cameras.
