Pi Zero 2W wont boot

Problem

The Raspberry Pi Zero 2W wont boot using the standard Rocky LInux Raspberry Pi image.

Solution

Using info gathered from Rocky_Linux_forum_post

# Blacklist brcmfmac
1. mount root partition
2. create a file called "01-rpi-blacklist.conf" in /etc/modprobe.d
3. umount root partition
4. boot the sd card in the pi zero 2w.
Then:
5. run /usr/bin/fix-wifi-rpi.sh  This script extracts all firmware files.  Feel free to look it over before running it.
6. delete the 01-rpi-blacklist.conf file from /etc/modprobe.ed
7. reboot
8.  Wifi should now be functional
