[Armbian build PR] - armbian-firmware: include nic fw from linux-firmware


Recommended Posts

Posted

Description

Many network cards (wired and wireless) now require specific firmware to work, these are usually included in linux-firmware. The idea of this commit is to include some common firmware in armbian-firmware to solve driver loading problems. After that we can remove the same firmware files on armbian-firmware.

Note: Didn't copy the brcm part from linux-firmware because I don't have the relevant hardware to test.
