I was able to get a FireWire DVD-RAM drive working under YDL 3.0.1, for which it was necessary to rebuild the kernel to include a driver for the type of FireWire card I have, set PCMCIA=yes in /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia, correct a bug in the /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia startup script, and run a script called rescan-scsi-bus.sh that I found on the net. I'm not sure whether any of this applies to you because I don't know what sort of equipment you've got. If you have built-in FireWire, then probably none of it does, but if you're also using a PCMCIA FireWire card let me know and I'll send you the gory details.
