The nvram file is board specific and so Asus should be able to provide

will be submitted to linux-firmware soon, but in the mean time you can
also find it in Android repository [1]. Just rename the file
fw_43341.bin to brcmfmac43340-sdio.bin.

Thank you for the link, the Asus eebook x205ta comes with Windows 8.1,
no idea how I'm going to get Asus to deliver that nvram, but at least
I'm halfway there now, the firmware loads correctly.

For Windows 8.1 the nvram file is stored in EFI variable space. This is accessible in Linux as well. If I recall correctly it should be in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars. There should be a file named nvram-*. Copy that to /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43340-sdio.txt.

Regards,
Arend
