[Bug 73647] Re: bnx2 module not in netboot initrd image for network installs

Hi Kyle

We want to install Ubuntu over the network onto the IBM x3550 which
requires the bnx2 drivers. These drivers are not available in the 6.06
LTS netboot image.

Hence, I am looking for a way of including the bnx2 kernel module in the
netboot initrd.gz. I would expect that this module would either:

- be built already and available through some other package which I have
not yet found

or

- possible to build using the 2.6.15 kernel source using a specific
kernel configuration file which I also have not yet found.

I would dearly appreciate any direction on this matter.
