Hi Vernon,

Great that the live cd gets a wireless connection.

I'm using a broadcom wifi adapter with the b43 driver. I
used the steps you mention.

$ lspci -nn | grep 14e4

02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries BCM43228 802.11a/b/g/n [14e4:4359]

$ lsmod | grep b43

b43                   466944  0
cordic                 16384  1 b43
bcma                   69632  1 b43
mac80211             1175552  1 b43
ssb                    94208  1 b43
cfg80211             1134592  3 wl,b43,mac80211
mmc_core              212992  5 b43,sdhci,ssb,cqhci,sdhci_pci


Hope you find a solution.
