Perhaps the nic is not dead yet! :p
It sure looked like the files were in /lib/firmware/rtl, although I
suppose they could have moved. And booting with the prior kernel would
still be using the same /lib/firmware, so the problem would occur with
the older kernel as well.
But that doesn't cover the case of booting from a 2009.1 partition which
has worked with this NIC before. That partition would have the same
kernel and /lib/firmware that worked the last time, no ?
