It might be a good idea to update the BIOS,

Quote:
Update the Bios first, before you remove Windows or you
will have to find a thumbdrive that works with the built
in Bios update program, and format it to "FAT" not "FAT32",
to do that, use a small thumbdrive 2GB or under, and rename
the BIOS file to 1000HE.ROM
Just use Windows if you can, to make the thumb drive, and
then download and rename the bios, put it on your thumb drive
and let the BIOS install the new BIOS, just make sure your battery
is charged and your power adapter is plugged into the wall

Also have a look over at that Linux "how to" page of making the
thumb drive up for your BIOS update

As far as making the BIOS update thumb drive under OS X, I dont know,
OS X seams to only use FAT32, I just tried with a 2GB thumb drive and
Disk Utility, and its FAT32.

I have not yet found any modified wireless KEXT for the 1000he
sorry,
