no internet connection for the install
#17
Rob,    Oh good information to know !  ( sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree)
All this time i have been doing it the hard way.
Maybe this is in the Help Manual ?
I haven't checked yet if it is in the help manual, be a great one to add in for this particular issue if it's not.

You will have to install some Broadcom firmware first. Using a cable or a USB wireless adapter that IS in the kernel, type this:

Code:
sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree

This should get your Broadcom wireless adapter going...
