I would like to add that there is also iso with non free drivers on
debian.org. Just check if your hardware is included. Basically most
hardware is included but one more check never matters.

You can ignore the firmware, you won't be able to use wifi. However, you
can complete the installation process and then download the firmware and
install it after you reboot it successfully.

I had this problem a while ago, but I can't remember how I solved it.
The firmware packages or files have to be in either the root directory,
or a directory named /firmware. Also, the USB has to be FAT32 formatted.

Tom, I regret no one has answered your question yet,
Greetings!
I am trying to install Debian on a Dell620 with USB stick media. When
the installer tried to configure the network software, it asked for an
iwlwifi firmware file.
I put the file on another USB stick, then tried two things:
1. put the firmware USB stick in another slot before booting.

Hello,
I'm a Debian Squeeze new user and have some basic questions about
Debian package tools.
Is it true I should avoid APT and use some other frontend or, better,
dpkg directly?
I tried aptitude, but I don't like ncurses-based tools. I prefer the
classic command line if possible.

To compile you use a compiler. The most common one is gcc, though there
are others distributed with Debian. Of course, it depends on what
