Hey All,
When attempting to download the brcrm wifi sdio text file per instructions:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Raspberry_Pi
I am getting a 404 error message.
$ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/master/brcm802... 404: Not Found
Looks like the link is dead?
Thanks!
Good Morning, Chris,
I _think_ this is what you're looking for, off the official RPi github site:
https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/tree/master/brcm
I haven't tried this, though, so use it with caution. I'm working on getting a reliable F27 aarch64 version working on my RPi-3B and that tree is just for 32-bit, I think.

Chris,
Ah, that site has just the .bin files, not the .txt files. I'll look around to see if I can find the larger repository.

They rebased the firmware and deleted the text file. Earlier today I updated the wiki with a new link, so you if you shift+reload the page you should get it, but it's [1] for reference here.

Standard advice a year ago was to download it from here: https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/tree/master/brcm80211/brcm but that site is gone, too. Haven't been able (after only a quick search) to find an alternate source.
From this thread, https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=150543 an alternate approach would be to copy the missing txt file from an SD containing a working version of Raspbian Stretch.
Interesting that the .bin files are in a public repository but the .txt files aren't. I'm sure there's a reason for that, but I can't think of one immediately.
Ah, I see that you've just gotten an updated link. I'll go check that out, too.
David,
I just googled around and found a copy of the file on the OpenELEC github. Copied and pasted into a text file and stuck it where it needed to go.
Peter - Thanks for the updated link. I'll try it out!
