Dear all, I installed debian lenny on my brand new dell poweredge R410 (dual quad core Xeon - 12 GB ram). The lenny installer was not able to detect the two Broadcom NetXtremeII BCM 5716.
A google search recommended to install a new kernel 2.6.29 and a new firmware package for the NIC. So after installing lenny, I installed dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.29-bpo.2-686_2.6.29-5~bpo50+1_i386.deb dpkg -i firmware-bnx2_0.17~bpo50+1_all.deb but after reboot with the new kernel still no network cards available. Since I am not a linux expert, I appreciate every help!!! Thanks in advance, Roman ROMAN BRUCK Health & Environment Nano Systems Bitte beachten Sie unseren neuen Firmennamen und neue Kontaktdaten!
