The USB stick you boot from will have empty space or a secomd partition. 2. Extract the firmware files from the .deb and put them on the stick. 3. Boot and change to console 2: ALT-F2. 4. Mount the partition holding the firmware on /mnt. 5. Create /lib/firmware: mkdir /lib/firmware and transfer the firmware there. 6. ALT-F1 to go back to d-i. d-i should now find the firmware. -- Brian.
