This is something required by the DFSG, it's not possible to have a package with firmware in main. Sorry if it causes you such issue, but it's the best option we have found so that Squeeze can possibly be released with the GNU/kFreeBSD architectures. > I installed an older version of the kernel, but it is not an option! > > Where can I get it deb package and not the files for installation.

If I understand > the situation. That is the plan, except the FreeBSD kernel doesn't support loading firmware that way. So the first step is to add support for firmware loading, which can take time. Then we can start thinking about providing firmware packages in non-free. It most probably won't be there for Squeeze.
