So, to turn this discussion into a real change: debian-www team: what do you think about adding some more hint/warning banners pointing to firmware-including installation images? We already have one at https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/debian-installer/ So we could also add it to other pages (and re-use the translations as well): https://www.debian.org/distrib/ https://www.debian.org/distrib/netinst https://www.debian.org/CD/http-ftp/ https://www.debian.org/CD/torrent-cd/ Of course it's not optimal to be forced to add it to so many pages, but the restructuring of the download / "getting-debian" section is already on the agenda, so in the long term we can hopefully reduce the amount of pages with that warning back to a low number like 2 or 3? The above is for stable. We could also do similar for the testing firmware-including images (that's probably the more important part, since there is no mention of such images at all on the website). Should I try to work out a proposal/patch? Or is there another plan for these issues already?
