So, using the Connect utility on the desktop in puppy, I manually loaded the bcm43xx package.

The system booted beautifully, but it did not automatically detect the built in airport extreme card in the Air, which according to System Profiler (in OSX) is based on the Broadcom 43xx chipset. I should note that this is my first attempt at using puppy - or any Linux distro on this laptop - though I've used other Linux distros on other hardware. This afternoon I downloaded the latest iso (puppy-4.00-k2.6.21.7-seamonkey.iso), burned a disk, and booted my macbook air from it.
