The firmware images are missing the files in the firmware folder which contain
information about matching hardware IDs with firmware. Consequently, the firmware
is not loaded automatically.
However, the firmware packages are still on the CD, located in
pool/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree
Maybe you can try installing the packages manually until we have sorted out the
issue with the meta-data.
