Centos 32 bit 1pw2200 firmware

Post by coffinmej » 2018/10/25 21:30:34

HI Everyone

firstly , if this is the wrong forum , please let me know and I will remove the post. I have an IBM R52 with the intel wireless card. I want to do a minimal install (done) , and get wireless working. The system complains it needs the firmware , but I cannot find it for 32 bit. I have the package from Centos 6 , but that does not seem to install. All i am looking for is the steps to follow (link etc). I am installing a minimal install to start with no desktop, just command line

Thanks

What is the firmware filename?
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
