Comment 6 for bug 435185

I've created a solution that patches the existing bnx2.ko module: it modifies an existing PCI ID in order to recognize the BCM5716 chip. My solution is a initramfs hook and takes care of all kernel-updates (and -upgrades); it's a one-stop solution for using BCM5716's on Hardy.
