Matthew, Your message is confusing to me, and maybe others.
Are you saying that you were using the non-free debian iso, you don't say if it's 32 or 64 bit, but let's assume 64 bit so this file or the larger one, https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/cd-including-firmware/10.5.0+nonfree/amd64/iso-cd/firmware-10.5.0-amd64-netinst.iso But if you use the advanced installer and download the latest firmware it works. Why the question if it works, the non-free iso might be missing some firmware that the latest firmware package has. i guess you should find the non-free people and file a bug report. Your question is still confusing since it works. What do you want to know?
