I rapidly realised,
however, that there is a very simple solution.  I open the box,
insert an old ethernet card, do my network installation, load the
drivers for the card(s) belonging to the box, remove the old card.

Another solution is to do the installation with complete CDs/DVDs (only the first one needed, often). Then, when your system works, just use the computer from which you downloaded those CDs at first, download the needed package, place it on a removable storage device, and transfer it to the other computer to install it through dpkg.

But those 2 solutions (yours and mine) are not the best ones, even if I use them. Things would have been way simpler if those firmwares had been in the installation media, as you said.
