</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Yes, and i saw no difference at all; both interfaces fail.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Trouble for most (if not almost all) wireless usage is that we would need to
</I>&gt;<i> know how to find and connect to the wireless AP and enter passwords etc, and
</I>&gt;<i> this falls out of scope of boot.iso as it needs network access to download
</I>&gt;<i> stage2 installer where this could be done.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>Uhmm, maybe i didn't understand something, but what
would be the point then to have some wireless firmwares
in boot-nonfree.iso ?
&gt;<i> boot*.iso is supposed to stay small for local lan installs.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> If we start adding more code to boot*.iso, it becomes the same as dual &amp;
</I>&gt;<i> livecds. what could/should be done is to add possibility to load nonfree
</I>&gt;<i> firmware from additional local media to stage1
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Possibly it do not even power up the PC-card as leds never lit up to confirm
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> the connection to router, but if i plug it in a working system it lits up.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> So i guess that makes for two bugs?
