Well, "net-setup eth0" works fine for manual configuration. If you're |
| 9 |
just looking for scanning, it should work by default, depending on the |
| 10 |
driver used for the card. Basically, it isn't any different than |
| 11 |
setting up regular networking. If you want the CD to have a specific |
| 12 |
ESSID/Key, then set it in /etc/conf.d/wireless in your fsscript. |
