Hey all -

I've been searching around the Web over the last week for signs firewire 
support will become part of the Kernel or at least an option.

I received this email from another firewall-bsd list I'm on that looks 
promising but I'm not sure if I can install it and get a card to work along 
with a Firewire drive....

Thoughts?
