Re: Reproducing unofficial weekly images?
Hi Leandro
The simplest way, for me, to do what you are asking about is to
download the zip or tar.gz for the distribution you require from
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/firmware/ Once
you have done that unpack it into your live-build environment
(config/includes.binary/firmware) before you start the build process.
This will then put the non-free firmware packages into the firmware
folder of the iso root directory so that when you boot from the iso
d-i will look for and find the required firmware and install it so you
can get your non-free hardware working.
Cheers.
Michael.
