Public bug reported: Hello. I have the server equipped with a Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 network card. The server works fine with a standart Xenial kernel (4.4), but fails to boot with linux-image-4.15.0-13-generic kernel.
Steps to reproduce: Install linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04-edge and reboot What happens: Server is not able to set up the network interface due to the missing firmware (screenshot attached).
