Description Mario Camou 2003-01-10 22:43:13 UTC 
The LiveCD kernel doesn't include the ieee1364 (Firewire) driver. That and the SBP2 driver 
(which depends on Firewire) are necessary for reading the CD on some Sony VAIO laptops (i.e., the 
latest in the R505 series) since the CD is connected into the Firewire bus.

Wups, I meant ieee1394, not 1364 (fixed in Summary)
