For rt73usb no firmware is needed. Just use vanilla kernel built-in module. |

|

as i did: |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
CONFIG_RT2X00=m |
| 6 |
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB=m |
| 7 |
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_USB=m |
| 8 |
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_FIRMWARE=y |
| 9 |
# CONFIG_RT2400PCI is not set |
| 10 |
# CONFIG_RT2500PCI is not set |
| 11 |
# CONFIG_RT61PCI is not set |
| 12 |
# CONFIG_RT2500USB is not set |
| 13 |
CONFIG_RT73USB=m |
| 14 |
CONFIG_RT2X00_LIB_DEBUGFS=y |
| 15 |
CONFIG_RT2X00_DEBUG=y |
| 16 |
