We have a new baseline image.

baseline-7.11.ndz

This image has everything baseline baseline-2.4.ndz had plus:

    * compat-wireless-2.6 (this made it possible to keep our 2.6.22
debian kernel)

http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/download

    * Kernel headers, libc6-dev
    * MadWifi driver is default

You can now switch between MadWifi and ath5k easily:

To load MadWifi:

athload madwifi

To load ath5k:

athload ath5k

You can also hack on ath5k and the new mac80211 stack now without
compiling the entire kernel. The source of compat-wireless was left
in:

/usr/src/compat-wireless-2.6/

Soon you will be able to update the driver on the fly with the latest
sources. This marks a new line of images for us. The point releases
will match the year.month. If a newer release is required in one month
we can add an extra point for the day it was released.

MD5sum.
