Description of problem: On installation of kernel-2.6.23.1-30, also happened with 2.6.23.1-26: WARNING: No module ieee1394 found for kernel 2.6.23.1-30.fc8, continuing anyway Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.23.1+ Expected results: Module should be present for distribution kernel.
Is this when updating the kernel? What are the contents of your /etc/modprobe.conf?
Updating from 2.6.23-6.fc8. This system has been updating to devel for a long time (fc5 may have been last time it was cleanly installed). 2.6.23-6 handles my firewire disk fine with the configuration as is, both the kernels listed above give this error AND cannot mount the firewire disk. /etc/modprobe.conf: alias scsi_hostadapter sbp2 alias scsi_hostadapter1 usb-storage remove snd-emu10k1 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-emu10k1 remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 1 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0 alias eth0 tulip alias eth1 3c59x alias wlan0 rt2500pci alias eth2 rndis_host options snd cards_limit=8 alias snd-card-7 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=7
I suspect the message will go away if you change sbp2 to firewire-sbp2 in /etc/modprobe.conf
The message indeed goes away when that change is made, however it doesn't make the kernel work when its installed. Both kernel 2.6.23.1-30 and 2.6.23.1-31 have kernel panics very early in the boot process, with messages about firewire_sbp2. I'll get back to this in a couple days and perhaps get the messages posted (not quite the same thing happening for both kernels, different messages but both still panic).
I'm still having issues with these kernels and the external firewire drive, but beginning to think its due to my hardware and its odd drive sleep behavior. I have had trouble with the kernel letting the drive power down and losing connection to it despite still thinking the drive is mounted... this has been going on for months, but the booting issues are new within a few weeks. All rawhide kernels after 2.6.23-6 still have the same or similar failure to boot if the drive enclosure power is ON at boot time, but they all boot fine and access the drive if it is not turned on until after booting (I have only really tried waiting until I login to X, so I'm assuming that once kernel modules are loaded and disk checks are done it would probably be fine to turn it on). If the drive has power when the kernel starts booting it fails every time. To clarify that it fails if: - power down machine, leave external drive power on (drive just parked) - power machine on, external drive seems not to wake up The kernel boots fine if: - power down machine, turn off external drive power - power machine on, leave drive power off until after login - drive is auto mounted and works fine for hours The drive is a western digital caviar internal 120gb ata133 drive in an I-Rocks usb2/firewire external enclosure. Here are two links to pictures of the screen when this happens; I know they are hard to read at all. There are repeated messages of: firewire_sbp2: orb reply timed out, rcode=0x11
