Title:
  Wireless network not detected during installation

Status in “debian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The amd64+mac Alternate installation CD detects the wireless interface
  but is unable to use it to get an IP address via DHCP.

  http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/210/builds/14347/downloads

  The PowerPC alternate CD from the same date detects the wireless
  network and is able to use it.  The installation process for AMD64+mac
  should be able to detect and use the wireless just like the PPC
  version does.
