I tried with these 2 installers: 7da925a34f6f7ab6e39ad64514139afb debian-bookworm-DI-alpha2-amd64-DVD-1.iso 547c0e2f85ec04ffec6d08a1e84c64e6 debian-bookworm-DI-alpha2-amd64-netinst.iso
both contain firmware-misc-nonfree_20230117-2_all.deb which is, I guess, where it's trying to load the firmware from. There's a newer version of the firmware in testing though: firmware-misc-nonfree_20230210-4_all.deb I noticed there's a second installer in the *snapshots* section, it also fails to load the firmware but the *installation continues correctly* to the next step aa5e3fe762300ba87fce77a6bf260a3e debian-testing-amd64-DVD-1.iso Regards -Ismael El mié, 29 mar 2023 a la(s) 09:16, David Wright (deb...@lionunicorn.co.uk) escribió: > On Tue 28 Mar 2023 at 12:57:28 (-0600), Ismael Farfán wrote: > > > > I'm trying to install Bookworm on a G513QY laptop with MT7921 wifi > adapter. > > > > As soon as the installer (Net or DVD) tries to detect the HW, the > installer > > stops blank. > > > > The last thing I see in dmesg is something like > > Detected ethernet HW, renamed to eth0 (succeed) > > then... : > > Failed to load mt7821 firmware (lots of this) > > hardware init failed > > [ loaded modules] > > [ stack trace ] > > <TASK> > > rfkill > > wiphy > > ieee802 > > > > > > Any ideas or workaround for this? > > > > I also tried with the advanced installer from the DVD but it always wants > > to try detecting the network HW and stops there. > > You need to post the full names of what you used to install with. > It's likely that your downloads aren't the firmware-inclusive > versions that you need.

What I may judge proper to conceal, does not concern myself alone.
