I had made a post to -questions last week asking if FBSD supported
Firewire as I didn't see any mention of it in the 4.7 Release Notes.  I
didn't get a definitive response.

Now I see your post and it leads me to believe that FireWire is
supported.  Is this true or did you have to modify your system in some
way to get support?

I've had my eye on an external FireWire IDE drive enclosure I'd like to
add to my system to increase storage capacity.  Do you have any comments
on how this would work?

Thanks,

Drew
