Package: debian-installer
Version: 20150422+deb8u3

What I've done :

for installing firmware (for wireless card), I put the on a USB stick
nowadays, the vast majority of USB stick is formatted FAT32, wich is
almost read by all OS

What was expected :
check-missing-firmware should have loaded the missing firmware

What happened :
Nothing

I managed the problem by using an old small key and formatting this key
in FAT

FAT32 support should be used by check-missing-firmware
