From: Stefan Richter This is a follow-up to patch "ieee1394: sbp2: enable auto spin-up for Maxtor disks". When I 'ejected' an OXUF922 based HDD from a Mac OS X box, it was spun down by the Mac and did not spin up by itself when attached to a Linux box right after that. The first SCSI command that required the bridge to access the drive ended in sda:<6>sd 18:0:0:0: Device not ready: <6>: Current: sense key: Not Ready Additional sense: Logical unit not ready, initializing cmd. required Therefore the flag which instructs scsi_mod to send START STOP UNIT with START=1 ("make medium ready") after such a condition is now enabled unconditionally for all FireWire storage devices.
