This is perhaps a related problem: I just noticed that if I have a firewire drive plugged in at boot, the SBP2 driver detects it during boot:
ohci1394_0: OHCI-1394 1.0 (PCI): IRQ=[10] MMIO=[e8201000-e82017ff] Max Packet=[2048] scsi0 : SCSI emulation for IEEE-1394 SBP-2 Devices ieee1394: sbp2: Logged into SBP-2 device ieee1394: sbp2: Node[00:1023]: Max speed [S400] - Max payload [2048] Vendor: Maxtor 4 Model: A250J8 Rev: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 06 ieee1394: Node added: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[0004830000002cb3] ieee1394: Host added: ID:BUS[0-01:1023] GUID[0040630000001c47]
But, the drive itself (/dev/sda) and any partitions on it don't show up in /proc/partitions until I mount one of them or perform some sort of other access to the drive, like running fdisk on it.
To me, this seems to be a bug. Or is it actually by design?
