Coriander returns an error, (same as the one I've read about in the threads relating to raw1394):

I've logged in as root and run coriander/kino etc and the problem is the same, so I don't think it's permissions
I've also tried the same process with the 64bit RC1 (by swapping drives) and the result is the same.
The Firewire controller is reported in CYC as:
R5C832 IEEE 1394 controller
and reports:
Module: firewire_ohci
