Re: install woes with BCM5721

Well I found Q. 22 (& the corresponding reply) in
http://wiki.debian.net/?DebianInstallerFAQ

Note that this says: "Now this has mostly been resolved with a version
of the driver that does not contain such firmware and should work with
*most* cards" (my emphasis).

Apparently my cards are just not among the "most"... *sigh*

Is there any solution?

Sure just get the BCM5721 driver from broadcam and try it out
worked for me on a tyon board a couple of month ago (we teste ipsec performance on debian/AMD64 with the tg3 and the bcm7500 as well)

http://www.broadcom.com/drivers/driver-sla.php?driver=570x-Linux

follow the readme and it should be easy.
