Hi,
on boot I get the following messages:
...

ipw2100: probe of 0000:02:04.0 failed with error -5
...
But when I unload and again load ipw2100, after I logged in, wlan is working.
Stange thing is that I put the modules in MOD_BLACKLIST in rc.conf:
...
MOD_BLACKLIST=(pcspkr ipw2100 ieee80211 ieee80211_crypt)
...
Nevertheless the modules are loaded on boot (if my interpretation of the output is right...).
So my actual question is: How can I disable the loading of ipw2100 on boot?
Thanks for any help.

Sorry but you get a firmware error... Did you install the firmware?

Yes
ipw2100: eth1: Firmware 'ipw2100-1.3.fw' not available or load failed.
ipw2100: eth1: ipw2100_get_firmware failed: -2
This looks very much like an error to me though?
Is the firmware located in /lib/firmware?

Is it possible to disable the loading of ipw2100 on bootup?
Offline
Omg, I found out why the module ipw2100 was loaded on bootup:
it was in my mkinitcpio.conf ...
