Re: Small/PlopLinux-4.3.1.1-i486.zip, w/o Xorg, GCC, MAN, Python
Hi,
LiveUSB boots to CLI and would need Desktop w/network.
WLAN requires Broadcom b43 driver:

This is my initial try w/PlopLinux.
Q: Can Qemu be installed w/o a Desktop on this LiveUSB key?
. . . any help would be appreciated

Hi,
This D-Link WLAN USB adapter has always worked out-of-the-box with other Distro's:

Q: What's the correct PlopLinux install indexing needed to interface w/DWA-131 WLAN?


Also, I see BusyBox is bundled w/PlopLinux and need install indexing of this barebones network utility embedded in BusyBox:

As I have seen, there are 3 different hardware versions of this WLAN adapter. Explaining how to get it to work should be an own thread. It also has a range from already supported, until compiling the driver, depending on your adapter version.
