Ahh..
This seems to ring a bell...
Some one on another mailing list (maced maybe? *prods the other
members*) had a similar issue with an external drive a couple of weeks
ago.
Give me an hour or two and I'll try and dig it up if I haven't deleted
it.. :O

Very wierd, started to do simple diagnostics, ie unplug everything
reboot, plug in one at a time and see what comes up, after second
reboot my Maxtor 1T ( time machine disk) is showing up fine on 800
FW, but my mybook 500 ( movies and itunes) only works on FW400. I
cannot repair permissions on either disk as it says " not available
as disk set to ignore ownership", but I have run repair permissions
on main HD and "repair" disk on both externals, it is saying 57 mins
remaining on repair permissions for main HD, so I must away to my
day job, will reply later with what I find.

Hi, I updated both my computers yesterday to 10.6.2 using the
combo updater, now none of my firewire disks are recognised,
help!!, how do I go back to 10.6.1?, can I just download the
10.6.1 combo updater and reinstall?
Hugh
You'll have to go back to your original 10.6 Installer DVD and
reinstall. Note that the SL Installer no longer gives you the
option of "Archive and Install". It now does this by default. After
reinstalling from the DVD, THEN apply the 10.6.1 update.
BTW - I uploaded to 10.6.2 last night, and this morning my
permanently-attached Firewire MyBook is working fine. It might be
best to check some of the user forums before burning any bridges.
Try some standard troubleshooting procedures: restarting in Verbose
Mode, repairing permissions, that sort of thing.
I agree with Peter & Greg. I updated using the Combo 10.6.2
yesterday and did my normal backup to two external Firewire Drives
last night without any problems.
In System Profiler are the Firewire Ports showing?
Did you repair permissions after updating?
