Title:
  [IBM x3455] tigon/tg3_tso.bin not found by installer

Status in “debian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “linux-firmware” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When installing Quantal (or Precise) on an IBM x3455 it tries to
  detect network hardware, but complains that this driver is not found
  and asks if it can be installed from removable media. After the
  install finishes it seems this driver is actually on the system
  (modinfo tg3 works), so the error seems a bit odd.
