I tried installing using the desktop legacy image and noticed that
`ubuntu-drivers` behaves the same way - recommending broadcom-sta-dkms
but then not installing it. Additionally, looking at the device I see
the following (which I also recall from the new installer):
05:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries BCM4352
802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter [14e4:43b1] (rev 03)

While the bcma module might be in use I have not wireless devices setup.

Title:
Failed to install bcmwl wireless driver during the install
Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Specifically for Lunar - using a Macbook Air 2012, its wireless driver
was not enabled even though I ticked the wireless tickbox on the
installer.
A quick look at the installer logs reveals various issues
syslog:2023-03-29T18:01:25.141599+00:00 ubuntu-budgie kernel: [ 43.063747]

error -2
I will attach the installer logs manually since this was captured
after the installation
Note - on 20.04.6, 22.04.2 and 22.10 with the same laptop bcmwl was
installed correctly during the install so this is a regression with
the 6.2 kernel
