I built myself a bootable USB stick and got sugar running on one of our netbooks. The OS is nothing short of extraordinary. I hope to be able to use it to teach the new computing science curriculum to early high school students. My problem is that I can't seem to connect or even view any network access points. I'm pretty sure it's because the live USB stick doesn't include driver support for the Broadcom 802.11a/b/g/draft-n hardware included in the netbook. iwconfig does not report any functioning eth ports. I've tangled with broadcom wireless drivers on linux before... Sound works as does the touchpad. It even detects battery levels. I'm still testing other functionality but would love to get the networking/collaboration functionality working. Any suggestions/links?
