[Bug 1006179] Re: ubiquity installer lists my networking chipset as a wireless network and wants me to connect to it

[Brian Murray]

Here is something in ubiquity's syslog:

 Feb 14 00:31:49 ubuntu kernel: [   74.375683] b43-phy0 ERROR: Firmware file "b43/ucode15.fw" not found
 Feb 14 00:31:49 ubuntu kernel: [   74.375697] b43-phy0 ERROR: Firmware file "b43-open/ucode15.fw" not found

 Feb 14 00:31:49 ubuntu kernel: [   74.389195] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready

ubiquity shouldn't be listing this as a network.

Title:
  ubiquity installer lists my networking chipset as a wireless network
  and wants me to connect to it

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When installing Precise 12.04, with ubiquity 2.10.16, the "Wireless"
  screen lists my wifi chipset (Broadcom BCM 4312) as a wireless network
  and prompts me to login to it.  I entered my wifi password expecting
  it to then lists networks, but nothing happened.  See attached
  screenshot.

  I am installing from a USB stick onto an HP Mini 110.
