ipw3945-ucode mkinitrd problem and patch: msg#00008

Subject: ipw3945-ucode mkinitrd problem and patch

hi *,

i just have tried to use my ipw3945 wifi card and was (after same help from
Sepp - thx!) able to build the kernel module.

but then i run into the next problem: i was able to load the kernel module but
the ipw3945 daemon (ipw3945d) wasn't finding any intel wifi network card. i
searched the logs and found the problem in the boot.msg log: "ipw3945.ucode"
not available.

the problem is that the lib/firmware dir isn't in the from mkinitrd created
initrd. so i add two lines to the mkinitrd script and now it is working :-) see
the attached file.

by the way:
t2 is great - thank you and keep on this good work :-)

best regards,
tobi
