I found some docs that seemed to indicate that the firmware files would have been installed automatically during initial setup, but they were not. I tried manually installing the ipw-firmware-7-10.noarch.rpm package, which is actually for 10.1. This doesn't install a file exactly named /lib/firmware/ipw2200-bss.fw so I just tried copying the corresponding *.fw file to the correct name. This is from the boot sequence after that:
I have installed the ipw-firmware-7-31 RPM. It contains these relevant files: /lib/firmware/ipw2200-bss.fw /lib/firmware/ipw2200-ibss.fw /lib/firmware/ipw2200-sniffer.fw Maybe they were not in the 7-10 version. They are listed at the end, implying they were added last. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems AB Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.
