Buster install on 820 Friday, February 15 2019
on USB #1: firmware-buster-DI-alpha5-amd64-netinst.iso
I also have on USB #2: firmware-9.4.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso
booted with #1, ... It did ask for firmware, I put #2 in and pressed
"continue" and install continued and I was able to select my wifi
Hopefully the same will work for you

Hello folks:
When I hit the networking section on a fresh install of 9.6 (full
install .ISO, not live),
I'm told to insert a USB of these non-free bits.
iwlwifi-8625-26.ucode, iwlwifi-8625-25.ucode,
iwlwifi-8625-24.ucode, iwlwifi-8625-23.ucode, iwlwifi-8625-22.ucode
The Problem is - I can't find 26-to-23 anywhere online.
My research attempts are below.
Questions:
==============
* What *are* 26, 25, 24, 23 for? I'm guessing Intel wifi; as that's
what I believe -22 is for.
But I don't see 26 to 23 listed anywhere...
* wouldn't it be useful for the installer to Also say what exact
hardware it is, that is requiring various bits & pieces?
Hardware:
===========
* 1 yr old Intel NUC, i7; new.
* Crucial memory, new.
* Kingston A400 SSD, new.
* aforementioned full 9.6 Stretch install .iso on a USB stick. I'm
using the graphical install.
My research attempts before emailing the list, are below.
==================================================
1. THIS is a good resource, from a fellow with a similar
Jessie-related problem.
https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/how-to-provide-non-free-firmware-files-to-the-debian-jessie-installer-4175542680/
However neither this, nor the /stretch versions have anything on
26-23.
2. The archive files that I found with -22, do not include any 26-23
files.
3. Package Search turns up nothing:
https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=stretch&arch=any&mode=filename&searchon=contents&keywords=8625
4. Intel's current wireless section only has -22 files.
(also see 2. above)

5. A flat out search turns up nothing.

A spot of help please?
Thank you
