Comment 9 for bug 218256

Same problem here.
Just to give a clue, the system hangs up with 2.6.24 kernel where the wireless chip is detected as 4301, but if I choose kernel 2.6.22 at boot, the system starts up and the chip – tiping in the terminal “lspci | grep Broadcom” – is detected as 4303. So, bad detection by the kernel 2.6.24? Anyway also with kernel 2.6.22 the wireless card doesn’t work (tiping “iwconfig” in the terminal “no wireless extension” is returned) either with the repository driver or the “b43” and “b43legacy” open source driver downloaded from http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/ , nonetheless the total remove of old bmc43xxx driver and Ndiswrapper from system.
