Good Morning,
I have a Linux box with two external firewire drives hooked up. The issue I am having is if I reboot or if we are hit by a power outage and I need to bring the system back online, it fails because it does not recognize the firewire drives. The error message says /dev/sda1 is an invalid block device. To fix this problem, I just make a copy of /etc/fstab and then remove the entries for the firewire drives, then reboot system. After system comes back up, I then move the copied version of /etc/fstab back and do a mount -a and the firewire drives are again useable.

Compare the output of "lsmod" after boot when the problem occurs, and after boot when everything's working. You might want to send your /etc/modules.conf to the list.
