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. :-)

Pasted and attached.

Hi,
I was wondering why this change hasn't made it into the Linus Git so
far.
Thanks.
