Two small comments on this part:
* If the user requests a firmware to be loaded
(hw-detect/load_firmware=true) without having the files available on
any media, no error message will currently be displayed. I think
this unusual behaviour might worth a mention in 6.4.
* At least one user asked about how to provide bnx2 firmware available
for the netboot installation method [1]. I think section 6.4.1 might
be a good place for such instructions.

(And many thanks for taking care of this!)
