Re: getting the cd1 installer with nonfree firmware

[Nick Gawronski <nick@nickgawronski.com>]

Hi, If you read on the debian wiki on firmware you can download the 
debian packages and uncompress them to the root of an USB flash drive 
and then it should detect the firmware as I have used this method with 
success.  The archive has lots of firmware but only the portions you 
need will be installed.  I usually run the installer with debconf 
priority set to low and choose the contrib and non-free repositories 
during the package installation as this way if updates are provided for 
the firmware they will be downloaded like other updates.  Nick Gawronski
