Scott Hosking, glad to hear the wifi works on the Quantal Live CD. As a WORKAROUND for the Quantal Live CD install problem, can you upgrade from Precise to Quantal following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Upgrades#Upgrading_to_development_releases and report the results of the WiFi?
To address the problem with the Live CD freezing when you attempt to install, please boot with the newest Quantal Live CD available, execute the following via a terminal and feel free to subscribe me to it: ubuntu-bug ubiquity -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/903584 Title: 168c:001c Toshiba NB100 Netbook fails to setup Atheros AR242x / AR542x Wireless Network Adapter To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/903584/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
