Bug Description

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

Installs fine from CD, nic works.
