b43/ucode5.fw is in the cut firmware, did you cut it/load it before you loaded the wireless-KERNEL extension (which would load the b43 module, which expects to find the firmware when it is loaded)?

I don't think so, but the firmware probably needs to be installed before the b43 module (contained in the wireless-KERNEL extension) is loaded.

hi,

Please translate, so a digital analyzer is not required.

Everything is installed at the factory (original factory settings).  The end-user's job is to cut/install firmware.  No-wonder it fails.

check wireless is enabled in bios and any hardware wireless switch is set to "on"

reboot your machine without any firmware or wireless extensions loaded

cut and install the b43 firmware as detailed above

load the wireless-KERNEL extension

paste the results of "dmesg | tail -20" or similar
