[arm-allstar] wireless messages - was install issue

[Doug Crompton]

This is explained in the wireless howto on the hamvoip.org page and I will repeat from that text here -

Also an important addition to eliminate CRDA messages and hangups at boot please install 
the following packages.

Enter at the linux prompt -

pacman -Sy crda iw wireless-regdb

This will install these three packages. Again this only needs to be installed in the V1.02 RPi2/3 
beta version when using wireless.

What is CRDA?

CRDA domain is relevant for choosing the permitted wireless channels for a given country. Not 
all channels are permitted in all countries. For Europe has channel 12 and 13, which are not 
permitted in North America.

Although it does not seem to matter in the US, you should uncomment your country designator 
in /etc/conf.d/wireless-regdom

#WIRELESS_REGDOM="US"    - remove the # in this line for US
This should eliminate the console messages. You only see these messages on the HDMI console and not when logging in via ssh. 

As mentioned these wireless messages on the console can also be ignored by just typing a retunr and logging in.
