Bug#705814: Incorrect firmware prompt for Intel Wireless 6005/6205



Package: release-notes
Severity: normal

Bug #705655 will not be fixed in time for r0.

The release notes should say that:

"If you have an Intel Wireless 6005 or 6205 card then the installer
will prompt for the firmware file iwlwifi-6000g2a-6.ucode.  This file
is not included in the firmware-iwlwifi package and is not actually
needed.  You must answer 'no' to continue with installation."
