i have download and succesfully booted te cd. Everything seems well, but hafing probs installing my usb wireless adapter TEW-229UB by TRENDnet. And unfortunately too, the manufacture doesnt provide linux os driver for it... sigh http://www.trendnet.com/support/linux.htm

but anyway, ive tried installing using the below method on with root shell

Bringing the card up by hand
1. Type: ndiswrapper -i /mnt/hda1/Wireless/<name-of-driver-file.inf>
2. Type: modprobe ndiswrapper
3. Type: iwconfig wlan0 essid any
4. Type: iwconfig wlan0 channel 11
5. Type: ifconfig wlan0 up
6. Type: pump -i wlan0

all goes well until... the 3rd step and 4th which gives the error


error for wireless request "set esside" (8b1a):
SET failed on device wlan0 ; No such device
