PeterNSteinmetz, this is different from the other reporters' issues. Yours is likely bad hardware, perhaps bad firmware. The drivers can't do anything about it. It could perhaps be caused by old revisions of 1394b physical interface chips (TI TSB81BA3 erratum without software workaround). If you have a 1394a (FireWire 400) device at hand, plug this into the bus too. This forces the bus to use slower and safer 1394a arbitration instead of 1394b arbitration. (But it can still work with 800 Mb/s data rate if the FireWire 400 device is located at an end of the bus, i.e. not between the FireWire 800 devices.)
