Yes, that'f perfectly fine.  My question was whether the relavant
firmware packages should be present on the installed system even if the
installer itself did not use/load them.  The netboot installer installs
everything from the network after all, so it could install firmware
packages just as it installs desktop packages for example.  Apparently
it does not, which is fine again, but I wasn't certain of the intent.
