I think it's a consequence of not choosing CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL=y. That caught me out on PowerMac G5 trying mmotm yesterday, it just hung for a few minutes in earlyish boot with a message about tg3_tso.bin, and then proceeded to boot up but without the network. I was unclear whether I'd been stupid, or the FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL Kconfigery was poor. I avoid initrd, and have tigon3 built in, if that's of any relevance. I wonder if that's Andrew's problem with 2.6.26-rc8-mm1 on his G5: mine here boots up fine (now I know to CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL=y).
