I have played around with the mechanism a bit and it turns out it's not easy to get it working as the Debian Ports mirrors have the "main" repository only while the interesting firmware packages are in non-free. I have set the following additional variables now: export NONFREE=1 export CONTRIB=1 export FORCE_FIRMWARE=1 Plus, I added the regular repositories as a local repository: export LOCAL=1 export LOCALDEBS=/srv/mirrors/debian This leads to the regular Debian mirror being included it seems: Get:2 file:/srv/mirrors/debian sid InRelease [247 kB] Get:2 file:/srv/mirrors/debian sid InRelease [247 kB] But in the end, I get: libisofs: WARNING : Cannot add /debian to Joliet tree. Symlinks can only be added to a Rock Ridge tree. libisofs: WARNING : Cannot add /dists/local to Joliet tree. Symlinks can only be added to a Rock Ridge tree. libisofs: WARNING : Cannot add /dists/unstable to Joliet tree.

I guess I will have to add a mechanism to debian-cd to be able to add the firmware packages to Debian Ports with something like: deb [arch=all] file:///srv/mirrors/debian unstable contrib non-free Adrian -- .''`.
