Tobi,
Edward recalls correctly that firewire support was disable because of
instability. But with the latest kernel (at least 2.6.6) you can get it
to work. I recently got my Apple iPod to work with FC2 connected via a
Belkin PCI 3-port Firewire card. Below are links to my blog explaining
what I had to do to get it to work.

Good luck. If you have any questions please feel free to email me at

Sincerely,
Jesus
