This is because the steps taken to start in OEM prepare, before moving to the real system runs systemctl isolate, and wpasupplicant gets caught in the crossfire. [Test case] * Steps to reproduce: 1. Install in OEM mode 2. Boot into OS 3. Check the wifi status in network-manager applet * Expected result: Available APs listed in network-manager applet, wifi connection can be established * Actual result: AP list replaced by a greyed-out "device not ready" wording Reboot system or do "$ sudo service network-manager restart" and wifi will then start working correctly. [Regression potential] The following are examples of possible regression scenarios from this stable update: - Failure to get the wireless device ready at session start - Driver loading issues for the wireless devices - Failure to complete OEM preparation steps, due to the oem user remaining connected while it's being removed by the last steps of the OEM preparation process.
