>Description:
Bonjour,

I'm tryin to install an Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG on a NEC S940.
But wen i'm try to load the firmware i have the following message:
(command to load iwicontrol -i iwi0 -d /boot/firmware -m bss)

iwicontrol: Can't load firmware to driver: Invalid argument

In the 6.1 RELEASE it was work fine. I didn't make an upgrade but formated et re-install the 6.2 release.

I want to install the iwi-firmware-kmod package but i can't find it on the ftp server at ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.2-release/net

What can i do ??

Thank's
