Hi, Thomas Kippenberg wrote: > Concerning the installer: There was no warning about the missing > firmware for the graphics card. Since the kernel's bad behavior without firmware is already being tracked by bug#607194 et al, let's make this bug about that. d-i team: can you reproduce this? Does installing on a machine with a radeon not warn about missing firmware? Is that fixable, for example by using vesafb instead for affected cards when the firmware is missing?
