Dear Michael and John,

Thank you both very much for your answers!

Unfortunately Michael's proposal would be valid only once.
So, I will try John's one and get back to you about my experience.

Even though I had already seen the options in the documentation, from
reading it I could not get that it referred to non-free firmware.
(Chances are I will also have to specify "non-free" as a source for
packages...)

Just a friendly reminder: If someone has another suggestion, please
remember to CC to me, as I am not on the list.

Best,
Leandro
