| 10 | IEEE 1394 describes a high performance serial bus, which is also |
| 11 | known as FireWire(tm) or i.Link(tm) and is used for connecting all |
| 12 | sorts of devices (most notably digital video cameras) to your |
| 13 | computer. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | If you have FireWire hardware and want to use it, say Y here. This |
| 16 | is the core support only, you will also need to select a driver for |
| 17 | your IEEE 1394 adapter. |

| 20 | implementation designed for robustness and simplicity. |
