I've checked the log and don't see any warnings. Attached is my current
log. What am I missing?
Unfortunately, the system does not complete the boot process with the bwi
module loaded. so I do not have a log for that process.
BTW, I've tried manually loading the module after booting, both without and
with the airport firmware.
Without the airport firmware the system complains but continues to run,
however with the firmware the system locks up.

It's not initialising fine; it's actually logging a warning. :)
