Hi!

I'm trying to construct myself a small rootfs that would boot up and
connect to my (open) WLAN. For this I'd very much like to avoid any
unneccesary and/or closed bits, so I thought no prob, I'll just
install wireless-tools there and put few commands to my bootup script.

Alas, things didn't go that easily. For whatever reason, the wlan0
interface (although seemingly up & running) refuses to take on the
essid I set with iwconfig, or any other command I try. When I boot to
the ITOS, the wireless-tools commands seem to work like they should.

So, the question is, is there some special setup needed for the wlan0
to come to life or do I really need to bring in the likes of wlancond
(whatever it's role in this might be)?

What I'm seeing in dmesg is the following line:

<4>[   11.625122] sm_drv_transmit: sm_frame_tx returned error -9

reported multiple times, but I guess this could be just the dhclient
trying to talk over non-connected interface.

Any hints?
