Mini DV and FC3

[Kevin Old]

Hello everyone,

I've followed this thread exactly as it states and can't seem to get
things working.
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2004-December/msg06925.html

I have a Panasonic PV-GS15 MiniDV camcorder and have a Firewire PCMCIA card
0b:00.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): NEC Corporation uPD72874 IEEE1394 OHCI
1.1 3-port PHY-Link Ctrlr (rev 01)

I've checked at linux1394.org and it is supported.  I'm trying to
mount an external harddrive via Firewire (it's in a USB 2.0/Firewire
enclosure).

I'm running FC3 with kernel-2.6.11-1.14_FC3.

My /etc/modprobe.conf look like:
alias eth0 e100
alias eth1 orinoco_cs
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-card-0 index=0
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 &&
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ;
}; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
alias usb-controller uhci-hcd
alias net-pf-10 off
alias ieee1394-controller ohci1394

I've got this in my /etc/rc.local file:
/dev/MAKEDEV raw1394
mknod -m 666 /dev/dv1394 c 171 32
/sbin/modprobe ieee1394
/sbin/modprobe ohci1394
/sbin/modprobe video1394
/sbin/modprobe raw1394 dv1394

This shows up on bootup in my /var/log/messages file on boot:
Apr 21 21:50:07 localhost kernel: video1394: Installed video1394 module
Apr 21 21:50:07 localhost kernel: ieee1394: raw1394: /dev/raw1394
device initialized

This shows up in /var/log/dmesg on boot:
ieee1394: Initialized config rom entry `ip1394'

First, I'm not sure if everything is loading properly.  Second, I'm
not sure of the order of modprobe statements in /etc/rc.local as I've
pieced them together from several places.

Is there something obvious I'm missing?

Any help is greatly appreciated!!!
