There are calls to a script 'check missing firmware.sh' during all three
stages of hardware detection.
Please do an install in expert mode, before any hardware detection is
performed, add a 'set -x' in:
- /bin/hw-detect
- /bin/disk-detect
- /bin/check-missing-firmware
Then, either check yourself where it's failing and/or send the resulting
syslog (gzipped!).
Cheers,
