We have that information unde INSTALL not under README.ipw2200, still I just added a part that talks about installing the firmware file. This because README.ipw2200 is already in the Documentation/networking/. I'm still spamming everyone cause I have not been told where to send this directly. :-) Signed-off-by: Alejandro Bonilla Pasted and attached. debian:~/linux-2.6# diff -usr Documentation/networking/README.ipw2200~ Documentation/networking/README.ipw2200 --- Documentation/networking/README.ipw2200~ 2005-09-06 19:33:24.000000000 -0600 +++ Documentation/networking/README.ipw2200 2005-09-06 19:33:24.000000000 -0600 @@ -27,7 +27,8 @@ 1.4.
