I just managed to boot the 2.4 kernel on an iMac
DV, and this kernel includes some FireWire
support, though I don't even know where to look
in the /dev directory. (could use some help
there folks.) Getting 2.4 to run is a good
start; a workable version has been out for a week
now or so I hear.
http://www.metaltux.org/~core/files/vmlinux-2.4.0-test10.gz
you'll need, in addition to the kernel, the
modules and the system map. I think they're in
that directory.
then you'll need a QUE driver for your burner.
That may be a little more difficult, but I think
there are others who are working on it.
peace
