Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1323861] Re: Installer looses eth0
Network issues continued after rebooting into my newly-installed system, but I have resolved the issue with a firmware update for the network device from Dell. For future reference, the firmware update can be downloaded from here, along with all of the other updates: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/product- support/product/poweredge-r300/drivers The firmware that you want is the one for the "Broadcom NeXtreme I and II Network Device Firmware 7.8.0" FYI: Dell provides firmware update programs for RedHat and Windows. The RedHat version did not work under Ubuntu (would not run the update at all), nor did it work under a Fedora Live CD (the update ran, but failed, and restored the original firmware upon failure). In order to install the firmware update I had to wipe the drive and install Windows, and then run the Windows version of the firmware update program. That made me sad. I did not have to install any of the other updates in order to get things working, only the update for the Broadcom was required. After upgrading the firmware and repeating the installation everything has gone smoothly. I apologize for the inconvenience to the Ubuntu developer team, and I thank you for all of your hard work. I consider the matter closed. Michael On 05/28/2014 08:35 PM, Christopher M. Penalver wrote: > msp3k, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

msp3k, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/product-support/product/poweredge-r300/drivers an update to your BIOS is available (1.5.2). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette .
