 Introduction
 ============
 The FreeBSD port of sg3_utils contains those utilities that are _not_
-specific to Linux. In some cases a utility could be ported but
-requires more work. An example is sg_dd which needs more work
-beyond the SCSI command pass through mechanism.
+specific to Linux. In some cases the FreeBSD camcontrol command supplies
+similar functionality; for example 'sg_map' is similar to
+'camcontrol devlist'.
+
+The dd variants from the sg3_utils package (e.g. sg_dd) rely on too many
+Linux idiosyncracies to be easily ported. A new package called 'ddpt'
+contains a utility with similar functionality to sg_dd and is available
+for FreeBSD.
