Re: [Madwifi-devel] Questions about EEPROM data

Well, I decided to go for it. The bad news is it still wouldn't boot with the 
card in, so it must be checking the subsystem vendor/device and/or revision 
number (I wouldn't think they would lock down the revision number, but we'll 
see). 

The good news is that I got it to boot and recognize the card as a Broadcom. 
In fact, it hung first time because I forgot to blacklist bcm43xx, so it 
tried to load it. After booting without the card and blacklisting bcm43xx, I 
was able to boot and connect to the AP, with lspci showing the card as 
a "Broadcom BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 01)". It's progress!
