You need to install the firmware-bnx2 package from non-free. See the
release notes draft here:

Bug#488265: linux-image-2.6-amd64-etchnhalf: Problem using bnx2 module
 

Hello,
I have already installed the firmware-bnx2 package

dpkg -l |grep bnx
ii firmware-bnx2 0.11~bpo40+1 Binary firmware
for Broadcom NetXtremeII

dpkg -l | grep linux-image-2.6-amd64-etchnhalf
ii linux-image-2.6-amd64-etchnhalf 2.6.24+13~etchnhalf.1 Linux
2.6-etchnhalf image on AM

but on kernel boot i can still see:

bnx2: Can't load firmware file bnx2-06-4.0.5.fw

Is it supposed to get these files from /lib/firmware?

As you can see there are at this dir.

ls -l /lib/firmware/
total 216
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 106116 Jun 5 11:29 bnx2-06-4.0.5.fw
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 102844 Jun 5 11:29 bnx2-09-4.0.5.fw

I would appreciate any further help

Thank you,

You need the one from proposed-updates. The one in sid only works with
an initramfs-tools package version that knows how to copy firmware
files over. The one in proposed-updates provides its own hook to work
with etch's initramfs-tools.
