Did you also try to perform these steps manually with the b43-fwcutter package provided by Hardy (see my post above)? Trying this would give an idea of it is a) a problem of the b43-fwcutter package in Hardy itself not being able to extract the firmware or b) a problem of the installation script (or the restricted driver manager) not being able to call the fwcutter properly.
I personally have a broadcom 4312, installing with the b43-fwcutter manually works fine for me but I can't test the automated installation, as my only internet connection is wireless and so I have to download the firmware and vpnc manually, before doing a new install... -- broadcom wireless not working fresh install of hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197819 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
