That works! I just added the source line into the list of "other" repositories in the setup menu of the Synaptic manager (apt-get for wimps). I was very close in my previous guess, but I left "base" off the end of the line. Apparently "close" does not count. ;-) After hitting reload, a search for "hostmot2" popped up all of the firmware options. The firmware downloaded and installed properly.
