There are calls to a script 'check missing firmware.sh' during all three stages of hardware detection. Please do an install in expert mode, before any hardware detection is performed, add a 'set -x' in: - /bin/hw-detect - /bin/disk-detect - /bin/check-missing-firmware Then, either check yourself where it's failing and/or send the resulting syslog (gzipped!).
