I've tried more and more but something wrong.
My /opt/bootlocal.sh is the following.
#!/bin/bash
# put other system startup command here
loadkeys it
ndiswrapper -i /home/dsl/Driver_pci/WlanCTG.inf
ndiswrapper -i /home/dsl/Driver_usb/WlanUTG.INF
ndiswrapper -l
modprobe -r ndiswrapper
modprobe ndiswrapper
iwconfig wlan0 essid TANA
wpa_supplicant -B -Dndiswrapper -i wlan0 -c /home/dsl/wpa_supplicant.conf
pump -i wlan0
I load two drivers because I want to make a remaster cd for all my computer with that 2 type of wifi card.
Both the cards work well if I write the commands on shell.
It seems like modprobe ndiswrapper needs more time to work...
How can I put a pause of 10 seconds before iwconfig?
Or is it something wrong else in my bootlocal.sh?

I use two type of card on 3 different pc two are USB and one is PCI all of them work well with wpa_supplicant on DSL.
I want to put two driver on ndiswrapper cause I want to remaster a MyDSL CD with wpa_supplicant for use it on all my computers.

Yeah, a 10 seconds pause resolves my problems, all seems to work now...
Thanks...
I'll try better on all my pcs when I have more time.
Now I have to try to make a MyDSL remaster cd.
But I have another question.
After driver load of ndiswrapper I see a note (or I don't think this is an error) .
<4>ndiswrapper (ExAllocatePoolWithTag:1180): Windows driver allocating 781216 bytes in atomic context
<4>ndiswrapper (ExAllocatePoolWithTag:1180): Windows driver allocating 201600 bytes in atomic context
<4>ndiswrapper (ExAllocatePoolWithTag:1180): Windows driver allocating 593920 bytes in atomic context
this is the note that i colud see in my dmesg.
Is it only a note that inform me how much is memory allocation?
Or is it a kind of advise that say me to allocate less memory? Or something else maybe....

I've tried to Remaster MyDSL cd, but DSL after burn the generated iso doesn't contains my modify to bootlocal.sh and all my other files (like wpa_supplicant and wifi drivers) on /home/dsl directory.How can I burn my modify to bootlocal.sh and wpa_supplicant on remastered cd?
