Any ideas?
If you are loading the modules from initrd then doesn't the firmware need to be present in the initrd as well as on your root filesystem? Since / either won't be mounted when the modules are loaded or it will be mounted somewhere other than / because they are loaded prior to the pivot_root happening (i.e. the firmware will be in /new_root/lib/modules or something). I've no idea how you can cause extra files to be dropped into a FC initrd though, sorry.
