Just a feedback:

today I started an update the usual way:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

I found the following warnings:
Code:

Have you tried to reboot? :> If you have physical access to server try to - you have plenty other kernel which should work.
 
yes I know but its the same warning. thanks for the feedback.

Hi,

updated today to the latest PVE 1.6 kernel, the warning is still present. I tested on a system with the following Ethernet hardware (from lspci):

Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 01)

Tried rebooting and Ethernet controller works. The missing fw could be present in firmware-non-free? Could be a solution adding it to the default PVE apt repos?
