+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt; not much for now, the iwl packages I have added is in order to test
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt; what can be done... but that is still wip....
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt; But it also carries kernel-firmware-nonfree wich is needed for some
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt; disc controllers and even wired lan cards and so on...

+I put a suggestion on a stripped down LiveCD here:
+
+<A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5467">https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5467</A>
+
+For best HW compatibility, but not having to download a whole CD.
+(It is much for some people)
+
+&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; Is it supposed to support PC-cards?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; I got the feeling my PC card did not get powered/initialised, as not
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; even the LED showing cable connection lit up.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Now I remeber i did take a photo of the message when it gives up.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; I type it here:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; No NET device found.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Hint: If you're using a Laptop, note that
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; PCMCIA Network adapters are now supported
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; either with 'pcmcia.img' or 'network.img'.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; please try both these bootdisks.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; [OK]
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Heh, thats old code/warning/info that should be removed...

+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Not finding these images i suppose this message should be updated to

+</I>&gt;<i> file a BR

+Two: wifi and PC-Card respectively support on network installer isos.

+
+&gt;<i> attach output of dmesg and lspcidrake -v
+</I>
+Actually i have changed wifi now for better performance.
+I wil test whatever gets asked in the bug.
+-if it is at all intended to be supported or we just set this as enhancement
+request(s) instead.
