On the other hand Dell has documentation on how to use your card for
iSCSI offloading:
http://support.euro.dell.com/support/edocs/network/BroadCom/R230837/en/linux.htm
Important part is to load the cnic module together with the bnx2i
module. You must see a message like
bnx2i [05:00.00]: ISCSI_INIT passed
at system bootup.
