I have a linksys wireless router and a linksys wmp54g wireless card

When I try to start knoppix 5.0 and it reaches the networking part, it says

eth0 detected
dhcp broadcasting for ip
udevd - event[3258]: wait for sysfs: waiting for 'sys/class/net/eth0/device/driver' failed

Nothing seems to happen after that. I'm stuck.

I wonder if it's because my router doesn't broadcast the ssid.
Would this be the case?
What do I do?
