Description (last modified by stappers)
I did a make V=99 and did get an kernel and the filesystem.
I used rev182.
So far, so good.
When I booted the new kernel; i get the following error:
[from dmesg]

Problem in the rules/extract_kmodpkg.sh. It did not copy ucode5.fw. Fixed in r290.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
The file ucode5.fw has to be in /lib/firmware/b43, but isn't.
If i copy the *5.fw files from an old build to lib/firmware/b43 - for example rev156 -
I can load the b43 interface.
