I went through that and added bnx2/bnx2-mips-09-5.0.0.j3.fw to External firmware blobs to build into the kernel binary, as you suggested. Then I ran 'make' and got the following error.
... ... MK_FW firmware/bnx2/bnx2-mips-09-5.0.0.j3.fw.gen.S make[1]: *** No rule to make target `firmware/bnx2/bnx2-mips-09-5.0.0.j3.fw', needed by `firmware/bnx2/bnx2-mips-09-5.0.0.j3.fw.gen.o'. Stop. make: *** [firmware] Error 2 I am not what to make of this.
