Is firewire storage devices just as easy? My drive is a combo usb2/firewire400 case, but I don't use the usb2 side of it since usb2 is so slow and uses up endless cpu cycles. I just haven't got around to trying it out on linux machine. Guess I probably should attempt it. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
