hi,
i installed squeeze with bnx2 firmware.
then i installed the pve kernel.
after the reboot i had no network.
i tried to install the pve-firmware package instead but did not work.
i installed the firmware from the sqeeze backport, this finally worked, until i wanted to install pve because this depends on pve-firmware.

i spent an hour now installing and removing packages and now i have a totally messed up system.

i'll reinstall squeeze but i need exact instructions how to install the firmware correctly.

thank you

u.
 
i reinstalled the system and it works now.
the trick was that i installed pve-firmware before anything else:

aptitude remove firmware-bnx2
aptitude install pve-firmware
aptitude install pve-kernel-2.6.32-6-pve

reboot
