Hi

many people have hardware that does not supported by Moblin images.
I plan to make available images that add missing modules.
First is available (with Broadcom wireless driver) at

http://www.modlinimages.ae/2009/06/first-modlin-beta-image-for-broadcom-wireless/

This images was tested on hp mini with BCM4312 wireless and works just fine.
Please

Hope this helps people!
