Hi all, I've installed an EFW 2.5.1 on a IBM x3100 M4, so far it was everything ok until I tried to add a PCI Express network card. It seems that EFW doesn't recognizes the PCI-E bus so it doesn't recognizes the NIC.
The lspci command gives me this output: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Sandy Bridge DRAM Controller (rev 09) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Sandy Bridge PCI Express Root Port (rev 09) 00:01.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Sandy Bridge PCI Express Root Port (rev 09) 00:1a.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation Cougar Point USB Enhanced Host Controller #2 (rev 05) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Cougar Point PCI Express Root Port 1 (rev b5) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Cougar Point PCI Express Root Port 2 (rev b5) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Cougar Point PCI Express Root Port 3 (rev b5) 00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Cougar Point PCI Express Root Port 4 (rev b5) 00:1c.4 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Cougar Point PCI Express Root Port 5 (rev b5) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation Cougar Point USB Enhanced Host Controller #1 (rev 05) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev a5) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation Cougar Point LPC Controller (rev 05) 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation Cougar Point 4 port SATA IDE Controller (rev 05) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation Cougar Point SMBus Controller (rev 05) 00:1f.5 IDE interface: Intel Corporation Cougar Point 2 port SATA IDE Controller (rev 05) 01:00.0 PCI bridge: Renesas Technology Corp.
