[Efw-user] EFW 2.5.1 on a IBM x3100 M4

[Emiliano T. <eto...@ip...>]

Hi all,

I've installed an EFW 2.5.1 on a IBM x3100 M4, so far it was everything 
ok until I tried to add a PCI Express network card. It seems that EFW 
doesn't recognizes the PCI-E bus so it doesn't recognizes the NIC.

The lspci command gives me this output:

I suppose that this is the problem:

But i don't know how to resolve it.

Have someone had a similar issue?, how can I resolve it?

I'll appreciate your help.
