-2 is ENOENT aka no such file or directory.

2.6.24 is not longer in testing/sid, the only dists which ships
firmware-iwlwifi 0.12.

I know that the following combination works:
| ||/ Name           Version        Description
| +++-==============-==============-============================================
| ii  firmware-iwlwi 0.12           Binary firmware for Intel Wireless 3945 and 
| ii  linux-image-2. 2.6.26-2       Linux 2.6.26 image on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/
| ii  udev           0.125-5        /dev/ and hotplug management daemon
