I had reported back in Bug #543488 that with Lucid, it was not possible to mount some firewire hard disks either with the old or new stack. I had made the test with Lucid Beta 1.
Today, I'm updating the status with Lucid Beta 2:
It is working out-of-the-box (without patch or other configuration), however Lucid Beta 2 is still using the old firewire stack by default.
So I have tried to switch to the new kernel stack (just as i tried it on Karmic Bug #529524). However, this is still not working on Lucid Beta 2. See my report on the Bug #529524.
N.B.: My firewire external HDD is a western digital MyBook with external power supply. I'm plugging it to a Lenovo Thinkpad T500 using a 6-pin to 4-pin firewire cable (the T500 has only a 4-pin plug).
