Subject: [PATCH Linus Git] README.ipw2200 does not contain firmware information.

Hi,
The kconfig from net/wireless says to look at the README.ipw2200 for
further installation of the firmware file. We have that information unde
INSTALL not under README.ipw2200, still I just added a part that talks
about installing the firmware file. This because README.ipw2200 is
already in the Documentation/networking/.
I'm still spamming everyone cause I have not been told where to send
this directly. :-)
Signed-off-by: Alejandro Bonilla <abonilla@linuxwireless.org>
Pasted and attached.
