My newly installed F12 doesn't recognise my external Firewire drive.

lspci shows the following:-
04:09.4 FireWire (IEEE 1394): ALi Corporation M5253 P1394 OHCI 1.1 Controller

I have the following installed packages which seem to be related to firewire support:-
libraw1394.x86_64                      2.0.4-1.fc12
libiec61883.x86_64                     1.2.0-3.fc12

Google doesn't provide any useful hints, anyone able to help me here?

TIA

Send your dmesg with / without the drive connected.

As requested.

Alan

AFAIS, it should be all alrighty; the kernel sees the drive and allocates resources for it accordingly. How do you mount it? By mount(8) or by some WM/DE's way to mount external drives? 

I don't see it listed using fdisk -l or df -h nor does it show in Nautilus, is there something different I'm missing for Firewire? It's formatted as 1 x EXT3  partition btw.

Alan

What does mount say? Just run mount from a terminal and paste the results.
