Description

Actual results:

When booting from LiveCD, boot fails. Messages indicate

legal.intel_wpi.license_ack=1
legal.intel_ipw.license_ack=1

are needed. Dropping to boot loader and entering these manually works fine.

Expected results:

possible to boot with this hardware

Suggestion:

delay driver load and read license_ack settings from cf loader.conf.local . Alternately, enable these settings by default, perhaps with license info message.
