Also, the supported device in current version is - Storage device and other SCSI on firewire device using CAM. Although, many kind of firewire devices, disk, scanner, VCR, video camera, still camera, keyboard and etc. are released, we don't have enough developing power due to only two engines being there, one is shimokawa-san and another is me. Later engine is sometimes stalled. Anyway, if you would like take the firewire related information, please refer fwohci(4) and sbp(4) for the supported chipset and the information for SCSI over firewire, respectively. We are sorry if the information is not sync'd the latest code.
