Debian Netinstaller integrate bnx2x firmware
Since Debian Lenny, the Broadcom Firmware for the Broadcom Netxtreme II 10GbE, isn't included in the Debian installer due to licensing issues. We are using a network based preseed installation for our HP Baldes (BL460cG6) and therefore we have to integrate this firmware into the Netinstaller.

Dann Frazier[1] wrote a script to make the integration prozess easy.[2] Special Thanks!

sh add-firmware-to Usage: add-firmware-to.sh <infile> <outfile>

sh add-firmware-to debian-503-amd64-netinst.iso debian-503-amd64-netinst-bnx2x.iso
Screencast
