Wireless & Bootloader on Fedora 14

[Boubakr]

Welcome,

I installed Fedora using USB on my Netbook and I got this two problems (Sorry for my bad English Language ) :

1- I can't use the wireless as I don't see the network to connect it,


$ lspci | grep -i wireless
03:00.0 Network controller: RaLink RT3090 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe

$ iwcofig
lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

virbr0 no wireless extensions.


2- When I install Fedora using USB, the bootloader installed on it and I can't boot just with it, when I didn't put it on they give me a problem with Grup :)

Okay, let's try to understand the situation.


1- I can't use the wireless as I don't see the network to connect it,


This is a common problem, you will probably need to download firmware for your wireless card. Either use a wired connection or transfer from another machine with Internet access.


2- When I install Fedora using USB, the bootloader installed on it and I can't boot just with it, when I didn't put it on they give me a problem with Grup :)

Not quite sure what you are saying. Where did the boot loader install to? Please show the output of:


mount
