It requires that the firmware come from the /lib/firmware (or similar) tree. This presents a problem when you have multiple run-in-place versions, or you have run-in-place and installed versions. I don't know the specifics of how to deal with this, but I think you more or less have to stick the firmware in the expected tree somewhere. I'm not sure how you specify the name at that point - the source (kernel or hostmot2) may tell you. - Steve ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
