For me as well. Maybe someone needs to read more careful and just don't

While that's a natural thought nowadays, it's not the case here;

Now that the code is well tested, don't ask the firmware question
anymore. Saves 141 precious bytes on the inside of the media.

Hi everybody,
I was coming to OpenBSD 5.1 looking for reasonable privacy and when I
install it (amd64 flavour), I see that fw_update automatically installs
propietary firmware without my permission. Actually even worse, it updates
it automatically from the net!
The parts affected are quite meaningful: the network card and the video
card... I mean.. ???? Should I request that you install propietary firmware
for my sound card too so that everybody can record my voice too?
I would like to hear your arguments on this and if there is a simple way
to disable fw_update and uninstall in general everything propietary
affecting the network card that I have not been warned about. I read on the
FAQ that I should have been asked about this firmware but I wasnB4t! (amd64
cd installer).
Thanks much,
Mark
I just want to note: last time I installed OpenBSD (a 5.1-snapshot) this
feature worked correctly. I was asked by the installer.
