Comments/Problems:

The installer did not succeed in setting up my wireless network card properly.
This is a Netis WF-2106 USB wireless card. It looks to me like it failed to load the rtl8712u firmware, but I'm not sure why.
I'm attaching the debug logs.
This is using a bleeding-edge installation image but I've had similar results with other less-recent images like the normal Testing one.
