That was tracked (even if shortly) in #991627, installation-guide was uploaded to unstable, migrated to testing, and sync'd (automatically apparently) to the website, as can be seen on those pages: https://www.debian.org/releases/bullseye/amd64/ch02s02 https://www.debian.org/releases/bullseye/amd64/ch06s04 > I'll retest “for real” once packages are in the archive, once I've > triggered a new d-i daily build, and once debian-cd has spinned another > firmware-enabled netinst daily build, but besides a possible typo here > or there, I think I'm out of obvious issues that need fixing! All that looked good, so we went ahead and started official builds after: 1. linux & util-linux migration; 2. d-i upload + migration + dak copy-installer. A few hours ago, I described both installations using the tentative firmware-enabled amd64 image for D-I Bullseye RC 3 as “uneventful”. Which is what we aim for! > Besides some builds (hw-detect, cdrom-detect, linux) and some final > tests (then migration to testing), I think we have all the pieces for > D-I Bullseye RC 3. I'm waiting a little so that others on #debian-cd can report back as well, but it looks like we're almost ready to publish RC 3. On the firmware front still: I've opened #991771 to keep track of a slightly different use case (main-only image + manually providing firmware on extra storage), which doesn't look like it's overly user-friendly (not much guidance in the installation guide at first glance) or well-maintained. Definitely not a blocker for Bullseye, it'll be a bonus if we can improve support for this use case later.
