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

</I>>><i> Reboot.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Now could I use the same installation to upgrade and use the same usb

</I>>><i> the whole instatallotion?
</I>>><i>

</I>><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 .
