Hi jbeckers, not sure if firewire worked before i used eddies patch to upgrade to 10.5.2, i didnt have my drives then..but booting in verbose (-v) as always showed firewire ie speed 400 and so on in 10.5.1. my system is rather weird though. could i ask what you have done for sb600 and 690g, as i get still waiting for root in all new releases...
