You don't.
Then how do I get them?
The problem is installing Debian on a laptop with wireless only. So I
need to dowload all the DVDs before starting the installation, and still
the software needed to get the wirless card (Intel Centrino Wireless-N
1030) working is in the non-free section which won´t be on the DVDs[1].
Most probably it's the firmware you require. This can be provided to d-i
on a USB stick.
Ok, and how do I set up a wireless connection without the software from
non-free when I have only the firmware?
