[G4] 3rd party wireless networking

[B G]

I have not used this card, but in general a non compatible card should 
not stop the boot process.
It should just boot up and not recognize the card.
Perhaps there is something wrong with the card itself?
If it is corrupted somehow, this might explain the problem.

Good luck

Brian
