[Bug 842560] Re: bnx2 firmware missing

[Ralf Heiringhoff]

I can confirm that applying the fix from comment #46 fixed our Issues
with only 1 Interface of the 2 onboard NICs working after reboot.

We ran into the Problem first after upgrading from Lucid (10.04) to
Oneiric (11.10) aswell as doing a clean install with Oneiric.

Hardware: DL 385 G2 (same as HP DL385 G5)

Bug description:
  Installing the latest Beta 1 of Ubuntu 11.10 (downloaded iso on
  09-06-2011) fails after the first reboot with this error:

  bnx2: Can't load firmware file "bnx2/bnx2-mips-06-6.2.1.fw"
  udevd[107]: '/sbin/modprobe -bv pci:v000014E4d0000164Csv00001028sd000001B2bc02sc00i00' [172] terminated by signal 9 (Killed)

  Earlier stable versions of Ubuntu Server (11.04) work fine on this
  machine.

  For further investigations i collected some additional information for
  you. (Attachments)

  Are there any other needed information i can supply?
