[fedora-arm] 404 error when downloading broadcom 43430-sdio.txt file

[Chris Tatman]

Hey All,

When attempting to download the brcrm wifi sdio text file per instructions:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Raspberry_Pi

I am getting a 404 error message.

$ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/master/brcm80211/brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio.txt
404: Not Found

Looks like the link is dead?

Thanks!

Good Morning, Chris,

    I _think_ this is what you're looking for, off the official RPi
github site:

https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/tree/master/brcm

I haven't tried this, though, so use it with caution.  I'm working on
getting a reliable F27 aarch64 version working on my RPi-3B and that
tree is just for 32-bit, I think.

Chris,

    Ah, that site has just the .bin files, not the .txt files.  I'll
look around to see if I can find the larger repository.

They rebased the firmware and deleted the text file. Earlier today I
updated the wiki with a new link, so you if you shift+reload the page
you should get it, but it's [1] for reference here.

    Standard advice a year ago was to download it from here:
https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/tree/master/brcm80211/brcm
but that site is gone, too.  Haven't been able (after only a quick
search) to find an alternate source.

    From this thread,
        https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=150543
an alternate approach would be to copy the missing txt file from an SD
containing a working version of Raspbian Stretch.

    Interesting that the .bin files are in a public repository but the
.txt files aren't.  I'm sure there's a reason for that, but I can't
think of one immediately.

    Ah, I see that you've just gotten an updated link.  I'll go check
that out, too.

David,

I just googled around and found a copy of the file on the OpenELEC github. Copied and pasted into a text file and stuck it where it needed to go.

Peter - Thanks for the updated link. I'll try it out!
