Hello,

I'm new to FreeBSD.

I set up a FreeBSD-4.9 backup server on a Epia mainboard with 4 HD of 120 gigs, and want to add an external backup
of 120Gb. Of course, I need firewire to have acceptable speeds. The VT6303 chipset is detected, but I don't see da0.

This is what I see in the logs : 

Apr 22 13:22:46 gattaca /kernel: fwohci0: <VIA VT6306> port 0xd000-0xd07f mem 0xe6400000-0xe64007ff irq 10 at device 13.0 on pci0

Apr 22 13:23:58 gattaca /kernel: WARNING: driver fw should register devices with make_dev() (dev_t = "#fw/0")

This is my kldstat :
gattaca# kldstat
Id Refs Address    Size     Name
 1    4 0xc0100000 43d918   kernel
 2    2 0xc23d1000 12000    firewire.ko
 3    1 0xc23e7000 8000     sbp.ko
 4    1 0xc3b08000 6000     umass.ko

I tried "kldload da", but it fails with :
kldload: can't load da: No such file or directory

Idem with scbus

gattaca# fdisk da0
fdisk: cannot open disk /dev/da0: Device not configured
