Shouldn't it be in /lib/firmware/tigon/tg3_tso.bin ?

I mean, are you sure it's kernel and not userspace (udev?) issue?

Starting with 2.6.29, tg3 does not include firmware in the kernel anymore,
as happened with many other drivers already - that was a change for sure.

(which reminds me I have to rework diskless initrd *again* shrug)
