>Description:

When I boot a NetBSD-current/i386 install CD and then connect a Buffalo WLI-U2-KG54L
USB WLAN adapter, I get the following kernel messages:

  zyd0: Buffalo USGB2.0 WLAN, rev. 2.00/40.10, addr 2
  zyd0: failed to open firmware zyd-zd1211b (error=2)

It seems pointless to include the zyd(4) driver in the INSTALL kernel
without also including the corresponding firmware.

>How-To-Repeat:

See above.
