Confirmed that the problem with firmware loading is because update- initramfs does not include the firmware in the initrd. The attached patch to initramfs-tools lets the ipw2200 module load at boot time. I am not very happy about having to special-case this module but on the other hand it is no w

It can also happen the other way around, so that it works only for -generic, but not -386, see bug 158858. It appears the problem is the missing firmware. However, I cannot confirm this with current Hardy: $ find /lib/firmware/2.6.24-11-386 /lib/firmware/2.6.24-11-generic -name ipw2200\* /lib/fir
