I suspect that's not supported, but probably do-able. You'd have to switch over to a VT early in the install and make sure to install and configure the modules to get the wireless working. You may have to download the appropriate modules and support software onto some media (floppy) and then get that all running outside the normal installer operation, then switch back over and continue the installation. You should do some research on wireless installs of debian. I did a cursory search and found nothing more than people speculating whether it could be done. A
