Comments/Problems:

I am automatizing the install and configuration of the my Dell blades. I am using preseed and packaging. However, the lastest Debian images (Wheezy netinst) can't find the package firmware-bnx2_0.36_all.deb on an USB flash disk.

My last sucess was using the 20121012 netinst image. It works fine now.  I don't tested all imagens from 20121012, but 20121128-30 and others doesn't work. The system says when installing: "No kernel  modules were found. [...] Continue the install without loading kernel modules?"

Thanks in advance.
