      The prompt says “can boot”, not “is usable with”. If it gets to the kernel and then hangs that still counts.

      Yeah, the first thing I change on a new laptop is the broadshit WiFi chip. Intel is the our lord and savior.

      Don’t a lot of routers use Broadcom SoCs? Things like DD-WRT and OpenWRT run the Linux kernel.

      Yes, Broadcom Wi-Fi driver support on Linux sucks, however.
