Public bug reported:

Jaunty Jackalope:  xubuntu-9.04-alternate-i386.iso

A dated  laptop Pentium 266 (256MB) IBM iSeries model 2611-450 (yenta bridge) 
cannot load Broadcom b43 driver firmware (because  unavailable ) so networking 
initialization phase cannot complete 
Looking for override.

Is there Any workaround for adding the firmware on the fly (during the
install sequence)?

I should say I was running 8.10 with CardBus PCMCIA b43 HW but I did not 
install 8.10 with
b43 HW (I added the card later). So when I go to 9.04 it does not seem to 
support it directly from 
within the install sequence framework. It loads the driver but cannot load the 
firmware.

TIA
