[Bug 74004] Re: Doesn't include qla2xxx firmware

[Matt Zimmerman]

I've uploaded udev to edgy-proposed.

SRU team: please consider these two uploads together as an SRU.  I've
updated the description accordingly.

** Description changed:

  The qla2xxx driver is included in the initramfs, but the firmware upon
- which it depends is not. This causes systems using this driver to fail
- to boot. This will be addressed in the development release by including
- an extra initramfs hook script in the linux-image packages, although
- this has not yet been done.
- http://librarian.launchpad.net/5220019/74004.debdiff fixes initramfs-
- tools for Edgy; a further patch is needed to include firmware loading
- rules in Edgy's udev.
+ which it depends is not. This causes this driver to be non-functional
+ for all Edgy users; in a case where it is used for the root filesystem
+ it would cause the system to fail to boot.
+ 
+ This has been addressed by patching udev to ship the firmware helper in
+ initramfs and initramfs-tools to include the firmware in initramfs.
