http://kitenet.net/~joey/blog/entry/d-i_firmware_loading http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/firmware/ I'm not sure what to do about both the Debian project being generally unaware of functionality already present in Debian. Document it better? Wet fishes applied to anyone who starts a flamewar about it? FWIW, I think that Ted makes good points about installing non-free's effect on users, and about a firmware section in the active being desirable. The current implementation tries to avoid these problems as much as it can without requiring big changes just before release[1]. -- see shy jo, not subscribed to this mailing list or active in the project [1] That is, 4 months ago when I implemented it.
