Personally, I think roger_ramjet is onto something...

u probably need to get a driver for the firewire hardrive and when u install windoze it might say press (whatever keys) to enter a driver disk.


This is exactly how you set a SCSI disk or array as a WindowsNT (or 2000/XP)-bootable device and install to it.  I would imagine a firewire drive would behave similar.  

My personal opinion is that booting from a firewire device sounds like data corruption waiting to happen, though.  Just as booting from an array isn't always a great idea, booting from a firewire device may get a bit messy...  especially in error-recovery.
