What type of device is this?
I have a:
-------------------------
ral0 at uhub0 port 1
ral0: Ralink 802.11g WLAN + Pen Drive, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 2
ral0: MAC/BBP RT2570 (rev 0x03), RF RT2526
ral0: 11b rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps
ral0: 11g rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 
24Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps
-------------------------

this is running fine on a sparc64 with GENERIC and is also booting over 
nfs.

The device is up and configured and is used without any issues on 4.99.3.
Although I am not sure this particular device requires firmware.
