I have a Lenovo S10-3t and would like to install gentoo, the liveCD recognizes the wireless adapter and ethernet through lspci but I'm unable to use it to connect to wireless networks. What can I do to establish a connection for the liveCD install?

Which one you want to use wired or wireless interface? Do they show up in a list when you execute
Code:
ifconfig -a
.

Use SystemRescueCd, xfce, nm-applet, connect wireless.
The same way that you can install gentoo.

Ifconfig doesn't show either. I can use system rescue to install Gentoo?
