Debian on Mac Mini

I just installed Debian Testing (Wheezy) on my Mac Mini. However, it has the deficiency of the firmware (wireless driver) if you just install it using a single CD.



So; 

install

apt-get install wireless-tools firmware-b43-installer

Then configure this file manually;

Edit the /etc/network/interfaces file

Put in the file:

auto wlan0 #so that you can boot up with WiFi connection automatically
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
    wpa-ssid <put your WiFi access point name>
    wpa-psk <put your WiFi access password>
