Error 2 means that the file could not be found. Did you make sure that the firmware is actually part of your initramfs image? Looking at the timestamp, just 2.62 seconds after the start of the kernel is too early for the hard drive to be available yet. Try using the lsinitramfs command to check whether your initramfs actually contains the firmware. I don't remember exactly, but there might be a switch for initramfs-tools to control which firmware to include. Adrian -- .''`.
