The only thing wrong is the lack of fw metadata (which is kind of obvious since the the firmware is somewhat customizable). You have two options: - either concat carl9170.fw and carl9170.dsc into carl9170-1.fw (by hand). - autogen.sh install [also adds miniboot + fw checksum] (since CONFIG_CARL9170FW_MAKE_RELEASE is y, and CONFIG_CARL9170FW_RELEASE_VERSION=1) Best Regards, Christian
