For a crosscheck I installed 'debian-10.7.0-amd64-netinst.iso'

Restart again, now with kernel 4.19.0-13. System working!

It strikes me that there are two parts to this issue.

1. How to make the installer find/install the firmware?

2. Why does X work without firmware on the buster kernel but not on the bullseye kernel? did the buster kernel accidentally
include firmware that it should not have done? when running on the buster kernel is X and/or the kernel using a generic
driver rather than a GPU specific driver?
