Thanks to S Cowles and others for advice on getting a firewire drive operational with Linux. It's a bit above my head but I can work towards it if necessary.
Stated on the source forge website http://linux1394.sourceforge.net/start_req.html: >.If you do not feel confident about building your own kernel, then we >suggest that you wait until your distribution provides a kernel ready for >1394. How can I tell if my kernel is already ready for 1394? I installed RH7.3, then updated the kernel using RH's update feature, to get 7.3 to work on my Dell Lattitude Laptop's Nvidia hardware, so I have a pretty new version (sorry I can't check now, doing this from Windows). By the way, for the other gentleman asking about installing a firewire drive, this is a great intro: http://linux1394.sourceforge.net/index.html. Also, I asked this question about three days before you and there are some good replies so check the digests for the last few days.
