I have RHEL 6 installed on my Dell Laptop. It's a dual boot environment, Windows 7 and RHEL 6. It's a 32 bit system.
I only have my phone to use internet on my computer, thus I must use only wireless on my computer to get connected to internet. But RHEL 6 gives me an error "Wireless Networks (device not ready (firmware missing))". I tried some forums and came to know that I'll have to install some other software, some firmware. I have Broadcom BCM 4312 802.11 b/g LP-PHY.
Using my friend's laptop I downloaded the packages and saved them on my Transcend (NTFS) hard drive. But again, I'm unable to mount the hard drive too. It says
unknown file system 'ntfs'.
I tried some forums and again I'll have to download some EPEL packages to be able to mount ntfs disk.
But everything gets back to internet. How do i resolve the firmware missing error without Internet or a hard drive.
I'm trying to create a DVD or CD for the missing packages and I'll try to install them.
