eth1394 (was Re: Relative Newbie With Fatal Errors during boot problem (Problem 3).)

[Sam Tygier]

thanks i'll try that.

having a peak through the file i noticed that eth1394 is blacklisted, with the comment that it causes confusion by creating unexpected network interfaces

i assume that eth1394 is a network over firewire type thing, i always thought that this was a pretty cool idea. 400mb/s (or something like that) on consumer grade machines (at least some of the apple ones) that wont have gigabit ethernet. surely if this was named properly confusion could be avoided.

is eth1394 stable enough to use? does it conflict badly with firewire peripherals?

thanks

sam
