[Bug 530348] Re: e100: eth0: e100_request_firmware: Failed to load firmware "e100/d101m_ucode.bin

[Chase Douglas]

@austin_is:

I'm still stumped, but the one difference I see in my system and yours
(I don't have e100, so I can't compare exactly) is that I don't have any
firmware in /lib/firmware. My firmware files exist only under the
/lib/firmware/`uname -r`/ directory. I don't think that removing the
firmware under /lib/firmware should make a difference, but if you are
desperate you can try that.

Note: I think you should be able to test this without rebooting. You
need to 'rmmod e100 && modprobe e100', but then you need to try bringing
it up to load the firmware: 'ifconfig eth0 up'. This is based on a
cursory glance over the driver code.
