[olug] linux / freebsd as firewire disk?

Is there any project / method to make a computer running linux or a  
freebsd behave as if it were a firewire (or usb) disk?  Meaning that  
you could run a firewire cable to another computer and that other  
computer would believe that the linux/freebsd host was in fact a  
firewire drive and not a computer.

This would be analogous to the way that a Mac can be put into 'target  
disk mode' and pretend to be a firewire disk, but ideally with the  
operating system (linux/freebsd) actually running.

Thanks,
