Hi All,

I had the same issue with ZS 3.0.0 –

[ 12.131474] bnx2 0000:01:00.0: eth0: Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 1000Base-T (C0) PCI Express found at mem c4000000, IRQ 16, node addr 00:aa:f7:71:e9:94
[ 12.134249] bnx2 0000:01:00.1: eth1: Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 1000Base-T (C0) PCI Express found at mem c6000000, IRQ 17, node addr 00:cc:f6:73:e9:96
[ 12.136264] bnx2 0000:02:00.0: eth2: Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5716 1000Base-T (C0) PCI Express found at mem c0000000, IRQ 16, node addr d4:dd:51:d9:0b:46
[ 12.138303] bnx2 0000:02:00.1: eth3: Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5716 1000Base-T (C0) PCI Express found at mem c2000000, IRQ 17, node addr d4:ff:50:d9:0b:47

[ 22.415149] bnx2: Can’t load firmware file “bnx2/bnx2-mips-09-6.2.1b.fw”
[ 22.431915] bnx2: Can’t load firmware file “bnx2/bnx2-mips-09-6.2.1b.fw”
[ 22.441019] bnx2: Can’t load firmware file “bnx2/bnx2-mips-09-6.2.1b.fw”
[ 22.450251] bnx2: Can’t load firmware file “bnx2/bnx2-mips-09-6.2.1b.fw”

My solution was to edit the ISO file (ZeroShell 3.0.0) and add the necessary fw file to the /firmware/bnx2 directory (within the ISO). I used and ISO editor to do this.

After this, both 5709 and 5716 cards loaded and I could use them.
