Hi all!
I've been tinkering with LFS on my Macbook Pro Retina and have managed
to get it booted up. However, I'm having trouble getting my wifi card
to work.
It's a Broadcom bcm4360. There are 2 flavors, evidently. Standard b43
drivers don't work on mine, so I have to use something called 'wl'.
On my Ubuntu installation, I did...
/apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source/
and then followed with..
/modprobe wl/
/
/
This worked great for Ubuntu.
Questions is; how do I replicate this process in LFS without a package
manager like 'dpkg'
I'd suggest you go to http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php,
then download the proper driver. The README at the bottom of the page
has good instructions.
I guess you'll need to have your kernel source (compiled with your
configuration) in a known location, like /usr/src.
I do not have a wireless card, so I cannot tell more...
