Hi, Nico earlier visited OFTC #debian about this issue.
The problem appears similar to #432042. Firmware isn't being transferred to the initrd via update-initramfs upon package installation. As the firmware isn't available in the initramfs image, it can't be loaded by the bnx2 module during boot. Running "update-initramfs -u" (as also done in #432042) corrected his issue. AFAICT, there isn't a postinst supplied with the firmware-bnx2 package to automatically enable this (as at 0.12), though one is included in the build for stable/etchnhalf (0.4+etchnhalf.1). The severity of this bug should also be reduced, it is "important" at the most. Geoff -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
