I'm trying to install ASCII on a Compaq presaria C700.According to the live 
boot USB cli, it has a Broadcom BCM4311 802.11 b/g WLAN [14e4"4311] rev 02 for 
the wireless adapter.  The install complains, as it should, and ask for two 
files, the names of which are duplicated for some reason: b43/ucode13.fw and 
b43-open/ucode13.fw. After much searching and downloading and building from 
instructions, I now have two copies of the file ucode13.fw; one from build 
instructions and one from a github download with sizes 28,216 and 29,008 
respectively.  Using a FAT32 usb drive and several attempts, I decided to do 
the following:Using Gparted on this Refracta laptop, I recreated a partition 
from scratch using all of the drive and formatting it to ext4 format. I then 
creatd the following structure in hopes of covering all the bases:It contains:
/ucode13.fw/b43/ucode13.fw/b43-open/ucode13.fw
I did this based on the installer message: "The missing files are: b43/ucode.fw 
b43/ucode13.fw b43-open/ucode.fw b43-open/ucode.fw"
The permissions are set to 755 at all levels. 
They are owned by root.
The installer tags the usb drive twice, computes a bit, and then tags the drive 
three times before giving up and putting up the original message.
Any ideas as to how to proceed?  Thank you.
