I don't know if Dan has already installed wget in chroot, which is partly why I suggested downloading on the host. The other part of 'partly' is that my own /sources is an nfs mount [ download once, build on one or more of my machines ].
What Dan seems to want to do differently is to *configure* the wifi in chroot. With wired ethernet, we have bootscripts which work. With wifi, people will have to work out how to set this up. Distros mostly use NetworkManager - my only use of wifi on a pc is my netbook, which uses NM [ and what a pain it is - it decided the passphrase for my router had changed, now I have to type it in every time it wakes up]. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
