[Bug 842560] Re: bnx2 firmware missing

[Tom Ellis]

On another Oneiric server I have running 3.0.0-12-server, I can see this
firmware present on the system post-install:

$ ls -l /lib/firmware/bnx2/bnx2-mips-06-6.2.1.fw
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 92792 2011-08-23 09:23 /lib/firmware/bnx2/bnx2-mips-06-6.2.1.fw
$ dpkg -S /lib/firmware/bnx2/bnx2-mips-06-6.2.1.fw
linux-firmware: /lib/firmware/bnx2/bnx2-mips-06-6.2.1.fw

The linux-firmware package is at version 1.60

It could also be a problem with a rename, perhaps inside the initrd?

mkdir /tmp/initrd && cd /tmp/initrd
gzip -cd /boot/initrd.img-3.0.0-12-server | cpio -idmv
$ find . -name bnx2-mips-06-6.2.1.fw
./lib/firmware/3.0.0-12-server/bnx2/bnx2-mips-06-6.2.1.fw

So, according to that it's also in the initrd....
