fe77d4f2 11 This is the "Juju" FireWire stack, a new alternative implementation
227e7d81
SR
12 designed for robustness and simplicity. You can build either this
13 stack, or the classic stack (the ieee1394 driver, ohci1394 etc.)
a1134dd4
SR
14 or both. Please read http://wiki.linux1394.org/JujuMigration before
15 you enable the new stack.

17 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the module will be
18 called firewire-core. It functionally replaces ieee1394, raw1394,
19 and video1394.
20
21 NOTE:
22
23 You should only build ONE of the stacks, unless you REALLY know what
24 you are doing. If you install both, you should configure them only as
25 modules rather than link them statically, and you should blacklist one
26 of the concurrent low-level drivers in /etc/modprobe.conf. Add either
27
28 blacklist firewire-ohci
29 or
30 blacklist ohci1394
31
32 there depending on which driver you DON'T want to have auto-loaded.
33 You can optionally do the same with the other IEEE 1394/ FireWire
34 drivers.
35
36 If you have an old modprobe which doesn't implement the blacklist
37 directive, use either
38
39 install firewire-ohci /bin/true
40 or
41 install ohci1394 /bin/true
42
43 and so on, depending on which modules you DON't want to have
44 auto-loaded.

67 This option enables you to use SBP-2 devices connected to a
