There is a piece of software that need to be run when (actually, before) installing a 
HARMONi card.  You can find it here:

http://www.sonnettech.com/downloads/software/harmoni_install_v11.hqx

Description: This installer software is required with the HARMONi G3 iMac� 
processor/FireWire� upgrade. It must be installed before the HARMONi hardware is 
installed.

There is also a firmware update that enables the FireWire port on some of the first 
units shipped:

http://www.sonnettech.com/downloads/software/harmoni_updater_v11.sit

Description: Some HARMONi upgrades were shipped with installer software which doesn't 
enable the FireWire port on the HARMONi. This Sonnet firmware update enables the 
FireWire port on affected HARMONi-upgraded iMac computers.

(Might this have an impact on stability issues as well?)

Plus there a couple files that are needed for FireWire support, depending on OS 
version:

http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/English-North_American/Macintosh/FireWire/FireWire_2.3.3.smi.bin

http://kbase.info.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/kbase.woa/wa/query?type=id&val=58642&KCID=198485

Description: Mac OS 8.6 and Mac OS 9.0.x FireWire driver software for the HARMONi 
iMac� processor/FireWire upgrade.


The only CPU card replacement for the Rev A-D iMacs that didn't require some kind of 
enabling software (I think Sonnet's works the same as PowerLogix' - reads the ROM 
contents of the original CPU card and then stores them into an IC on the new CPU card) 
was the Newer card, which used recycled Apple CPU cards.

Then again, the original poster might just want to call Sonnet Tech. and ask them?

HARMONi doesn't require anything like that. It is basically a daughtercard replacement.
