I'm not entirely sure whether we should make 'make firmware_install' install to /lib/firmware by default, or to $(O)/usr/lib/firmware as it does at the moment. The former is consistent with 'make modules_install', and the latter is consistent with 'make headers_install'. Both of which have good reasons for being the way they are. -- dwmw2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
