yep. And unless you've specifically told it otherwise, mandrake 9.0 uses devfs anyway, so you shouldn't even need to do that. As far as I know, if the device is plugged in and it's working, there should be a symlink called /dev/raw1394 to the appropriate "real" /dev entry when the module is loaded. You might have more luck walking through the /dev/ieee1394 directory. But I don't know anything about firewire, so that's really just a guess.
