</I>>><i> Theese are exactly the same as the official beta1 isos,

</I>><i> Thx for the extra work, I had to re-install anyway, am in the middle to do so-

</I>><i> My first attempt is without actiyated non-free which should tell something-

</I>
Ok, so now I am at the point where I try to configure wifi without any
additional media than the core repository-
The correct wifi is found but the system says that there are
additionaöl software and drivers needed (namely broadcom-wl) which I
may find in non-free or elsewhere. Just as expected.
Reboot.
Now could I use the same installation to upgrade and use the same usb
stick, just activating the core plus non-free ? Or do I have to redo
the whole instatallotion?
