+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Ok, so now I am at the point where I try to configure wifi without any
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> additional media than the core repository-
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> The correct wifi is found but the system says that there are
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> additiona&#246;l software and drivers needed (namely broadcom-wl) which I
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> may find in non-free or elsewhere. Just as expected.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Did it try to configure it anyway, or did it stop there ?
+</I>
+No, it ends there- you can close the ,essage and go back where you
+have the already used option or the option to use a windows driver
+with ndiswrapper. Or go back and leave the cinfiguration
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Reboot.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Now could I use the same installation to upgrade and use the same usb
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> stick, just activating the core plus non-free ? Or do I have to redo
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> the whole instatallotion?
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Just use the same install and install dkms-broadcom-wl
+</I>
+Ok. so all I have to do go online with cable bound network, set media
+including non-free, and then install dkms-broadcom-wl plus the needed
+things. then reboot and try a new attempt at configuring .
