Re: Share internal hard disk via firewire?

Hey All. I have an interesting problem. I am looking to share a hard
disk partition on my Linux machine (slackware) via Firewire to another
computer (In this case a mac). Now, filesystem issues aside, is there
any way that I can share the _internal_ hard disk on my linux machine
to another computer directly via firewire?

And have 2 controllers access the same disk at the same time ?
Seems dangerous.

How is the disk connected, locally ? IDE, SATA, firewire ?
Seems a weird idea, a disk that has both IDE (or SATA) and firewire.
