It seems a bit odd that Sheeva plug, Guru plug, Dockstar, OpenRD, Qnap
and others(?) support is built-in, but support for Lacie is not. I'm
not a (kernel)developer, so I don't know what problems this will bring
up. But as a user I would appreciate it if Lacie support was in the
standard kernel. If there is any reason this is not possible, I'll
accept that off course.
