Hello, I ran into the same problem with a wifi card (iwlwifi). I have a workaround for that. First, be sure to have the installation medi with the non-free firmware/drivers. Install until the error "ethernet card not found".
Open console (alt-f2). Then install manually the firmware: # cp /cdrom/firmware/firmware-iwlw*deb /tmp (choose your firmware accordingly to your hardware) # cd /tmp # ar x *deb # xzcat data.tar.xz > data.tar # cd / # tar xf /tmp/data.tar (at this point, you should have a /lib/firmware directory) # rmmod iwlwifi # modprobe iwlwifi # ip a should show a wlan0 card. Go back to console 1, and choose the network detection from the menu. The network is detected. But unfortunatley, I couldn't go further: The iwlwifi card was detected, network scanning was OK (all SSID were shown) but connection was impossible, with messages similar to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=174659 in console 4. I used an USB/RJ45 dongle to netinstall and now the wifi card works flawlessly. So it could be another installer issue, or the way I've loaded the firmware or modprobe the module (?)
