IEEE 1394 describes a high performance serial bus, which is also
known as FireWire(tm) or i.Link(tm) and is used for connecting all
sorts of devices (most notably digital video cameras) to your
computer.
If you have FireWire hardware and want to use it, say Y here. This
is the core support only, you will also need to select a driver for
your IEEE 1394 adapter.
This is the "JUJU" firewire stack, an alternative
implementation designed for roboustness and simplicity.
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
module will be called fw-core.

depends on PCI && FW
help
Enable this driver if you have an firewire controller based
on the OHCI specification. For all practical purposes, this
is the only chipset in use, so say Y here.
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
module will be called fw-ohci.
config FW_SBP2
tristate "Support for storage devices (SBP-2 protocol driver)"
depends on FW && SCSI
help
This option enables you to use SBP-2 devices connected to an
firewire bus. SBP-2 devices include storage devices like
harddisks and DVD drives, also some other FireWire devices
like scanners.
You should also enable support for disks, CD-ROMs, etc. in the SCSI
configuration section.
