We have the following scenario to deal with:

- we have setup autotest/cobbler ring with several test clients

- in the test pool there are new machines that have hardware requiring firmware 
updates, that firmware is not part of the upstream kernel but it is in 
git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware

- we get autotest job request with source based kernels (tar.gz2) that are 
basically slightly modified upstream kernels (the job submitter git clones from 
Linux-stable and makes some modifications to it)

The result is that on the SUT kernel is rebuild and when booting into new 
kernel it does not come up bc it is missing necessary firmware. 

What is a good way to handle this? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Julius
