how do you know that ? ( not being pedantic, just want to confirm what
sign / status you see that confirms its using the wlan0 ?  )

the installer will give you a choice as to what network interface you
want to use, if you are not seeing that its possible the installer does
not see the second interface at all. If you are certain that the
interface is indeed up and running, you can specify the ksdevice=<MAC>
on the boot line, and force it to use a specific eth interface.
