https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=701402 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=701402#c0 Summary: Please add packages to "Live CD" and downloadable DVD versions Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.4 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: openSUSE 11.4 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: adrian816@hotmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0.1 Please can you add these packages to the "Live CD" and DVD images which people can download from your website: For broadband internet access: wpa_supplicant ndiswrapper Some ISPs install wireless routers (802.11b, g or n) on customers premises and customers need to install wi-fi adapters to connect to the internet. If they have been given the CD or DVD by a friend these applications allow someone to connect their computer to the internet. I've logged this as an enhancement request although I had to dual-boot back into WindowsXP and download these separately before I could access the internet using the Linux version of Firefox. (You may wish to specify wpa_supplicant and ndiswrapper as bug requests) --- Dual boot windows and linux install "grldr" executable file in c:\ install associated "menu.lst" file in c:\ change windows XP c:\boot.ini: append 'c:\grldr="Linux"' and change the timeout "timeout=14" I installed linux onto a second disk in my PC (/dev/sdb) alongside windows XP on the existing C: drive (/dev/sda) and set up the Grub loader to boot Linux (edit menu.lst to specify "rootnoverify (hd1,0)" ) This allowed me to keep the existing WindowsXP ntldr boot-loader and dual boot into linux.
