I believe this card is supported by the new ath5k driver module in newer
kernels. I have used the G650 (same chipset I believe) with the MADWIFI
in the past. It might be the ath9k driver. The reason you are not
getting any lights is that the driver is not loaded for it Try
"modprobe ath5k"

I recommend using the "GRUB For DOS" instead of the direct boot sector
loading. Easier to setup and more configurable. You simply load the

With linux kernels 2.6.10 or higher you can not use SUID root permissions on
