Cannot detect multiple firewire disks

kev66 · 02-08-2006, 12:54 AM

My system can only detect 1 firewire disk, even though 2 are connected. If I disconnect the 1 that is currently detected, it'll detect the other one. I cannot get it to detect both at the same time.
Note that I'm using rescan-scs-bus.sh to detect them.

gscanbus detects both of them, but I guess that's because it uses the raw1394 module.

I'm using various 2.4.21 kernels, Redhat Enterprise 3. Currently using 2.4.21-15 which I compiled myself. Firewire components are compiled as modules.

The disks are connected via a Belkin firewire 3-port PCI card (F5U502).

I've been googling this for a while
My current feelings are that it's a problem with the lucent chipset on the Belkin card.

Any ideas or suggestions ?
