Bug#355220: linux-kernel-di-powerpc-2.6: doesn't include tg3 modules, means Appple XServe G5 cannot netboot.



Package: linux-kernel-di-powerpc-2.6
Severity: important


linux-kernel-di-powerpc-2.6|nic-modules doesn't include tg3, even though this
one is built and provided in kernel-wedge. Probably because the powerpc
nic-modules doesn't include the kernel-wedge magic or something.

This means the Apple XServe G5 cannot netboot (and maybe other apple machines
?) since they use broadcom gigabit ethernet controllers.

Friendly,

Sven Luther
