Hi eltone
Are you booting from a CD? If so, it must pause somewhere to give you some options. Or did you install to a
hard drive?

tinypoodle:
Keys in FAQ are specific to .iso bootloader configuration.
You can either configure your current bootloader or just boot from cd again ;)

Rich:
Hi eltone
Boot the thumb drive. Open a terminal and enter:

--- Code: ---sudo editor
--- End code ---
Click File->Open  and navigate to  /mnt/sda1  assuming your thumb drive is sda1
You are looking for  extlinux.conf. If you don't see an  extlinux  directory, check under boot for it.
Open the  extlinux.conf  file and append:

--- Code: ---blacklist=bcma,wl
--- End code ---
to the end of the line with the word  quiet  in it. Save and reboot.

Assume "tc-install" 'vfat' formatting option is FAT32??

--- End quote ---

Yes and yes; though vfat could potentially be FAT16 if the partition would be really small.

Juanito:
Maybe I'm missing something here, but for me:

The wl module comes from the wl-modules-3.0.21-tinycore extension, which you don't need to load unless you're planning on using the broadcom driver.

If you don't load wl-modules-3.0.21-tinycore, then you don't need blacklist=wl (and in any case it will not automagically load itself)

If you use the b43 driver, then I don't believe you need to blacklist anything - since it is an in-kernel driver, it will behave properly with the bcma and ssb modules.
