does anyone know if there is a limitation on firewire debugging on a 
machine with > 4GB or memory?

I have 1394 {a,b} cards.  does it make a difference?

also, the firewire card on one machine stops it from booting..

is there a way to disable it during boot other than recompiling the 
kernel without firewire?
