Hello everyone! Well, on my Fujitsu C Series Lifebook I've been unable to get ANY linux distro to work with my 1394 Maxtor hard drive. I get that infamous error about time loging into device. A google search shows many people asking about that, but few, if any, answers that work. On Linux, it seems that you either have hardware that works right off the bat, or your hardware just does not work. Enter FreeBSD 5.0 Release! Firewire drive working PERFECTLY! It has taken me longer to get a working "Desktop" solution. Complete with Java and Flash, Open Office etc. than it does with any linux distro. But I can use my external drive! Yee Haw! Matt Anderson |
