1394 harddrive problems

Greetings,

I have been having trouble getting an ieee1394 hardrive recognized on an x86
PC. I did have it running on the PC, but after upgrading/recompiling my
kernel, upgrading gcc/glibc, I cannot seem to get the kernel to recognize the
drive. It can be accessed successfully from Windows or a PowerPC running
linux. Here are the details.

Kernel version 2.4.26, compiled with gcc-3.3.2, glibc = 2.3.2

Here is the kernel log after insmod'ing ieee1394, ohci1394:

May 18 08:35:22 kernel: ohci1394: $Rev: 1045 $ Ben Collins
<bcollins@debian.org>
May 18 08:35:22 kernel: PCI: Found IRQ 3 for device 02:0d.0
May 18 08:35:22 kernel: PCI: Sharing IRQ 3 with 02:09.0

May 18 08:35:22 kernel: ohci1394_0: OHCI-1394 1.0 (PCI): IRQ=[3]
MMIO=[feafd000-feafd7ff] Max Packet=[2048]

>insmod sbp2
gives:
May 18 08:35:45 kernel: sbp2: $Rev: 1074 $ Ben Collins <bcollins@debian.org>

>modprobe sbp2 sbp2_force_inquiry_hack=1
gives the same result.

At this point, the rescan-scsi-bus script will not find either the drive or
the scsi1 adapter corresponding to ieee1394.

/proc/bus/ieee1394/devices is empty.

I've tried going down in kernel versions, 2.4.20, 2.4.18 both give the same
result. Same with using gcc-2.95.3 to compile the kernel and modules. Using
2.4.17, the ieee1394 scsi adapter shows up, but I still cannot get the disk
to attach. I've tried different combinations of compiling ieee1394,
ohci,sbp2 as modules or directly into the kernel without success. I have
tried both hotplug support and without. I'm stumped, hence the posting.
Anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks,
Bernie
