Hrmm... only firewire devices I have connected are a Lexar CompactFlash
reader, and my Nikon Super Coolscan 4000 ED.... I'm guessing it's
probably the CF reader which uses the LSI chipset.... I could try
pulling it off the chain.

I have a dual 2.3 G5 and also a lot of earlier PowerMacs that were
highly upgraded and usually being booted via external Firewire HDs to
avoid the slower SCSI bus. My experience with LSI brand chipset
Firewire external devices was a little iffy. AFAIK LSI never provided
any firmware updates for their chips, and when I used LSI external
drives I had some intermittent problems where the driver would unmount
the HD, which if this was also the boot drive, would result in panic.
I doubt you’re booting your G5 from an external Firewire HD, but if
you’ve got an LSI external Firewire HD attached, this might be the
problem? I have much better luck with Oxford Firewire devices, which
were generally rock solid as long as the firmware was updated to the
latest version.
