Hello,
I'm running FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE and I have problems with my Broadcom
wireless driver. I cannot load the module during boot (error is :
bwn_v4_lp_ucode15: could not load firmware image, error 2)
Here are some details:

Now, if I manually load that module with kldload and re-create wlan0,
scanning works and dmesg shows that modules was loaded:
mm@mmmmmm ~$ sudo ifconfig wlan0 destroy
mm@mmmmmm ~$
mm@mmmmmm ~$ sudo ifconfig wlan0 up scan
ifconfig: interface wlan0 does not exist

mm@mmmmmm ~$ sudo kldload /boot/modules/bwn_v4_lp_ucode.ko
