I am attempting to use my Raspberry Pi as a LTSP thin terminal via BerryTerminal, however the driver for my wireless adapter isn't included in that distribution.

Can anyone point me to instructions in order to do this?

Raspberry Pi: Model B, 256 MB RAM
Wireless adapter: Edimax EW-7811Un
OS: BerryTerminal (via BerryBoot)

Based on a Google search, the card uses a Realtek chipset. You should be able to get it working with the command:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install -y firmware-realtek

You'll need to enter your password when it asks. After the command completes, you should be able to connect.
