I would carefully read Coriander manual web page:
http://damien.douxchamps.net/ieee1394/coriander/manual/
And more specifically at "Software requirements / Linux Kernel and
devices" section.
And now I recall... I think the raw1394 interface was removed from Debian
kernel time ago, but I don't know what's its current status nor how this
finally affects Coriander, maybe you need to manually build/enable those
kernel modules again >:-?

Coriander seems to be a bit outdated (2007?), but you can read some
literature here:
coriander: crashes on every invocation
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=575519
(look at the first message, what's that "juju" firewire stack the user
mentions? :-?)
