[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. -- Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 not detected on install https://launchpad.net/bugs/73647 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Obviously, this is related to the latest dapper netboot image which I could find: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ kind regards - William -- Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 not detected on install https://launchpad.net/bugs/73647 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have also checked the linux-source-2.6.15_2.6.15-23.39_all.deb package and the bnx2.c and bnx2.h c files are there in the source. Hence, all that is required is a configuration file for the netboot kernel. -- Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 not detected on install https://launchpad.net/bugs/73647 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
