Comment 5 for bug 295287

I actually upgraded to 9.04 yesterday, so now on kernel 2.6.28-11, bug still exists and is now causing significant delays to bootup, several minutes worth. The system does boot eventually however without any actions on my part. 8.10 did not appear to suffer these delays, certainly not to the same extent.

I'm afraid I'm not very familiar with the initramfs system, so I'm not really sure what is required when that other bug stated

"creating your own file in /etc/initramfs-tools/hooks that copies /lib/udev/firmware.sh and the /lib/firmware/ql2400_fw.bin file into the initramfs"

I've had a look at the initramfs-tools man page, but it isn't clear to me whether the included functions are appropriate for this, as these files don't appear to me to be modules, and copy_exec doesn't seem appropriate either. This being the case, where should I be copying the files to?

Thanks

Steven
