No wired or wireless network

Tried to upgade from 13.04 64bit desktop to 13.10 when the upgrade
notification popped up.

However after few mins into the upgrade process, it showed  upgrade
cancelled since /boot did not have enough space.

Cleaned all kernels (including current one 3.8.0-31-generic, yikes!)
with a typo in regex in apt-get purge. However were able to install the
-30 and -31 back in and rebooted. After the reboot no network.

sudo ifconfig -a does not show eth0 or wlan0.

sudo lshw -class network shows both of pro/wireless 5100agn
and broadcom netlink bcm5787m gig are UNCLAIMED.

Any help restoring at least the wired/broadcom will be appreciated.

Luckily I have this computer running lubuntu and has working network
so I could email :-)

Thanks
