OK after clean reboot:

daggar># mount /dev/da2s1c /mnt/firewire
daggar># ls -la /mnt/firewire
total 6060294
drwxr-xr-x   3 root  wheel         512 May 27 07:34 .
drwxr-xr-x  10 root  wheel         512 Jun 30 15:00 ..
drwxr-xr-x   6 root  wheel         512 May 27 07:47 daggar
-rw-r--r--   1 root  wheel  6204180970 May 27 01:26 daggar_full_backup.tgz

Now unplug firewire cable for 1st time:

Plug cable back in:
