Description of problem: dd-bnx-16235-x86_64.iso has five drivers, which are cnic, bnx2, bnx2x, bnx2i and bnx2fc, and two firmware packages, which are kmod-bnx2-firmware and kmod-bnx2x-firmware. I am trying to install a RHEL6.4 system with DUP on iscsi target via bnx2x card, but during installation, Anaconda logged a ERROR in anaconda.log, "ERROR : Could not copy firmware file /tmp/DD/lib/firmware/updates: Is a directory" And I find that only the files in kmod-bnx2-firmware package are in the new initramfs, while the files in kmod-bnx2x-firmware are not in the new initramfs. So when reboot, it will say "bnx2x 0000:08:00.0: firmware: requesting bnx2x/bnx2x-e1h-7.8.17.0.fw bnx2s: [bnx2x_init_firmware:12436(eth0)] Can't load firmware file bnx2x/bnx2x-e1h-7.8.17.0.fw", then the boot failed. It seems that at present Anaconda can only hanle one firmware package. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda version 13.21.195 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1.install a RHEL6.4 system with DUP on iscsi target via bnx2x card 2.reboot 3.boot failure Actual results: boot failure Expected results: boot success Additional info: hp-dl380eg8-02.rhts.eng.nay.redhat.com

Give this updates.img a try: http://bcl.fedorapeople.org/updates/1043372.img We weren't copying the firmware/updates/* files over to the target system before recreating the initrd so they were missing. Also note, the dd iso you attached is the wrong one, it is for rhel7.

Agreed. > > Also note, the dd iso you attached is the wrong one, it is for rhel7. No, it is for RHEL6.4, it is built against 2.6.32-358.
