I'm encountering this issue on a Dell PowerEdge 2950 (pretty common server model, we have a ton of them here). Clean install of 11.10 will not boot properly, same with installing 11.04 and then upgrading. It appears to be running the latest udev (173-0ubuntu4).

[ 62.944049] bnx2: Can't load firmware file "bnx2/bnx2-mips-06-6.2.1.fw"
[ 62.944081] bnx2 0000:05:00.0: PCI INT A disabled
[ 62.944095] bnx2: probe of 0000:05:00.0 failed with error -2

Apologies if I'm missing something, and let me know if I can provide any further info.
