I'm attempting to load iwlwifi-3160 firmware. It works, but only if I build the following drivers as modules.

     Intel Wireless WiFi Next Gen AGN - Wireless-N/Advanced-N/Ultimate

      Intel Wireless WiFi MVM Firmware Support

I have no experience with firmware, but am forced in this instance. However, I'm unaware firmware drivers can't be compiled into the kernel. If I do so the firmware isn't found.

Is there something in LFS/BLFS requiring modules for firmware? Assuming not, and I've made an error, what might I check? Other than this, everything works well.
