This will not be easy at all.. Does the laptop have extension possibilities like ExpressCard (or even PCMCIA)? If so, you may be able to find one of those cards with a working firewire port - and chipset! If not, AFAIK there is no way to add firewire capability. Don't try USB to firewire adapter cables: the connection may work but there will be no firewire functionality.
