Unsolved Dell PE1950 gets error "Can’t load firmware file bnx2/bnx2-rv2p-06-6.0.15.fw"

[geardog]

This error occurs when trying to catalog a PE1950. I find it a little odd, as I have cataloged and deployed to another PE1950. I have, however, upgraded FOG since then. I’m running fog from a PE2950, on ver 1.5.4 and using the latest kernel (images from 4.18.3).

I found similar topics, but cringe a little at modifying the boot image. Any other thoughts?

Just drop firmware file in /lib/firmware/ ?

@geardog Sorry for the long delay. Will be ready fairly soon. Are you still interested, I hope?!

I added it yesterday but also had to put in some major work to fix issues in our kernel build environment… https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/pull/12

Indeed that seems a little odd as we do add firmware blobs on user request but as far as I know we have never removed a blod later on. Not saying that this never happened but I am not aware of it.

As I don’t find this very exact filename in the forums I kind of doubt this has ever been added. I just added the firmware blob [ref]. Will let you know when new kernels are baked.
