Firmware (manual install)
These firmware can be manually downloaded and installed:
- get them from David's Woodhouse linux-firmware git repository:
$ cd somewhere_with_free_space/ $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git linux-firmware_git
- copy them (version v8) to you TFTP directory (here /tftpboot/):
$ cp linux-firmware_git/libertas/sd8686_v8.bin /tftpboot/ $ cp linux-firmware_git/libertas/sd8686_v8_helper.bin /tftpboot/
- install them on your target (here 192.168.1.2 is my Host IP address):
# mkdir -p /lib/firmware/ # cd /lib/firmware/ # tftp -g -r sd8686_v8.bin -l sd8686.bin 192.168.1.2 # tftp -g -r sd8686_v8_helper.bin -l sd8686_helper.bin 192.168.1.2 # ls -al /lib/firmware/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jan 1 01:01 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 0 Dec 30 2009 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 122800 Jan 1 01:00 sd8686.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2464 Jan 1 01:01 sd8686_helper.bin
