I only have access to WiFi (not ethernet) and need to install Rocks Cluster, which is based on CentOS. I keep getting stuck on the network configuration.

I installed Debian on the same computer using WiFi by skipping network configuration at install time and adding WiFi drivers via a flash drive.

The laptop is a Dell D830 Latitude with an Intel Wireless-N card.

  • @GAD3R Sure. I just realized the Ubuntu OS was already overwritten, so I can't do it this second but it's Broadcom / Intel and I will get this info as soon as I can get the computer to load an OS.

  • Thank you. If I can get it to finish installing without a network then I can do this, but I can't see how to get past the network configuration screens at install time (?). I will try again right now.
