Booting is frozen on GDM + Firmware problem



I just installed Debian Buster with GNOME on my laptop. Whenever I boot it, it just freezes on "Starting GDM".


During installation, I got this messsage:

"""Some of your hardware requires non-free firmware to operate...

The missing firmware files are:

ath10k/pre-cal-pci-0000:03:00.0.bin
ath10k/cal-pci-0000:03:00.0.bin

Load missing firmware from removable media?"""

I chose "no" because all I could find was opion to download sources of these packages but but no ".bin" of them here:

https://packages.debian.org/sid/firmware-atheros
https://packages.debian.org/sid/firmware-amd-graphics

Though debian configured Wi-Fi fine during installation, now I am stuck with a frozen boot and Ctrl-Alt-F1 (or 2/3/4/5/6/7) does not give me a tty either.

What should I do?

P.S. I tried debian testing netinst iso too but that gives even a longer list of non-free firmware missing (along with those 2 above, I see firmware-2/3/4/5/6.bin missing)
