I also have an atheros minipci card that's detected fine during installation.  However, I can't get 
DHCP to work after setting the ESSID and key.  It must be something to do with the restricted modules 
not getting loaded.  Therefore, I must get packages with my wired LAN during the install.  After the 
installation is complete, then the restricted module (madwifi) is downloaded with synaptic.  It would 
be great if the module could be loaded and used during the installation, but if it's restricted and 
can't be part of the install media (CD)...oh well.  That is a pain in the butt for those of us trying 
to install ubuntu without having a wired lan available.
