You need better friends? :-)  More seriously, the divergent history
of Unix(tm) variants means that various implementations used
different directories to store/find the equivalent files.  Where
the firmware goes for any particular distribution can only be
determined by reading the documentation and/or source.
I believe that (at least some variants of) debian will search
/usr/local/lib/firmware.  Your friend, perhaps, should have
asked what distribution/version you are running.
