In any case there is no harm in this message. It just means it cannot initialise your firewire as a network port. But that's fine since you did not want to use it anyway.

If there is nothing wrong I would not worry too much about a few kernel messages on boot (even if repeated 87 times). derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net ____________________________________________________ Want to buy your Pack or Services from Mandriva?
