What do I have to do to make it happen? The wireless > network I'm planning to use is open to all (unprotected/unencrypted). The Squeeze installer is good. To make the wireless work, I had to get some non-free firmware and the installer told me what was required. I just went onto the net and found the firmware required, placed it on a USB stick where the installer found it, because it asked me if it should look for these files, said yes, and it did. It is a very nifty installer. The best yet, and I must congratulate all who had anything to do with it. I hope you find it likewise.
