OK I guess I'm in way over my head :-(
ifconfig -a lists only irda0 and lo, no ethernet or wireless
interfaces at all.
I have /lib/modules/2.6.20.6, and it has no drivers directory, only
a series of files named modules.thing
I downloaded all the .ipks from angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/
feed/armv5te/machine/akita to an sd card and tried to install
angstrom-base-wifi_1.0-r19_akita.ipk. It complained that it needed
kernel-module-orinoco-cs_2.6.20-r16_akita.ipk, so I tried installing
that. It complained
/tmp/ipkg-intercept-1344-0/update-modules: 1: update-modules: Not found
I don't know what to do next!
(I was doing this as root, in the sd card folder where the ipk files
are.)
I thought the idea behind ipk was that all of the dependencies were
resolved within the package, but I guess I'm wrong, or there is some
critical step I'm missing.

Try: iwconfig in the terminal it will list the wireless
interfaces. If you have eth0 as your interface you can simply use
the network applet to configure it.
I have an Ambicom 1100 prism2 card and by default it loads the
orinoco drivers and names the wireless interface eth0. By deleting
the orinico_cs module in /lib/modules/2.6.20/drivers/net/wireless
and them using rmmod orinoco_cs as root the hostap driver will load
and you'll have the normail wlan0 interface.
Good luck,
Jerry
