SBP2 appears to be loading file, according to my syslog entries:

Mar 4 17:31:52 localhost kernel: ieee1394: sbp2: Logged into SBP-2 device
Mar 4 17:31:52 localhost kernel: ieee1394: sbp2: Node[00:1023]: Max speed [S400] - Max payload [2048]

Mar 4 17:31:53 localhost /etc/hotplug/ieee1394.agent: missing kernel or user mode driver sbp2

And rescan-scsi-bus.sh sees the device:

root@zaphod:/etc/hotplug/ieee1394$ ./rescan-scsi-bus.sh

I just can't figure out why SBP2 doesn't create a device for it under
/dev... :-)

Thanks!
