The bcmwl driver SHOULD NOT have been installed on this hardware in
either 22.04 or 22.10, because the bcmwl package has no Modaliases
matching your hardware.

Please provide a log when booting with one of these OSes to show what is
actually happening.  It is almost certainly using a different driver
than bcmwl.

Title:
  Failed to install bcmwl wireless driver during the install

Status in broadcom-sta package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Specifically for Lunar - using a Macbook Air 2012, its wireless driver
  was not enabled even though I ticked the wireless tickbox on the
  installer.

  A quick look at the installer logs reveals various issues

  syslog:2023-03-29T18:01:25.141599+00:00 ubuntu-budgie kernel: [   43.063747]

error -2

  I will attach the installer logs manually since this was captured
  after the installation

  Note - on 20.04.6, 22.04.2 and 22.10 with the same laptop bcmwl was
  installed correctly during the install so this is a regression with
  the 6.2 kernel
