A few days ago, I extended hw-detect to look for firmware (u)debs in /firmware/ (for PXE boot images) and /cdrom/firmware/, so if you create a CD/DVD with the firmware .deb files in a firmware/ directory in the root of the CD, it should work out of the box. Any license question asked in the package preinst should be displayed, and the firmware package will not be used if the license isn't accepted. The change is in the daily built d-i images already. Please report back if it do not work for you. > I'm guessing that we're not likely to want the extra images for all > architectures: i386/amd64/powerpc(?). Any others? I have no idea. I only use i386 and amd64. :) Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
