Do you have any status on when we might see updated netboot images with the needed firmware files included? The latest proposed images in 20101020ubuntu423 still do not contain the needed files, and we had to roll our own initrd.gz image in order to do network installs on systems with these NICS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1544321 Title: In A Single Power VM LPAR : Network Configuration Fails in Ubuntu16.04 while installation Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Bug description: Network install using Broadcom bnx2x based NICs is failing.
