Public bug reported:

Using both karmic and jaunty netboot images from:

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/karmic/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot
/ubuntu-installer/i386/ linux/initrd.gz

installed karmic from cd, 
box can pxe boots, 
 I am getting "E100_request_firmware failed to load firmware 
"e100/d101m_ucode.bin file not found." 

(10:03:28 AM) cjwatson: CarlFK: I *think* that's the responsibility of the 
kernel to ship the right bits in the firmware udebs
(10:05:02 AM) CarlFK: cjwatson: isn't the installer kernel the same as the 
kernel that gets installed? (so should have all the same support... so 
something broke)
(10:05:32 AM) cjwatson: CarlFK: the kernel image (vmlinuz) itself is, but the 
module selection is stripped down
(10:05:36 AM) cjwatson: (and always has been)
(10:07:49 AM) CarlFK: cjwatson: ok - as long as its intentional and not an 
opps.  but I am guessing good nic support is something the netboot kernel 
should have - Ill bug all this and let someone make a decision
(10:08:15 AM) cjwatson: stick the bug on linux, it's probably just a matter of 
adding that file to nic-firmware
