Hi,
I downloaded one of the firmware netinstall builds of Debian from today 
(11/03/2020) to try installing on my netbook with the 8821ce wifi card since 
Debian now has the 5.9 kernel. During the text install with speech, I received 
an error that the network card could not be found. I opened a console and 
looking at dmesg showed the driver not finding the firmware with a -2 error, 
however, I noticed that the requested files had been unpacked to /lib/firmware. 
I unloaded rtw88_8821ce and reloaded it using modprobe and the firmware was 
found, after which the network interface was successfully brought up. I was 
able to continue through the rest of the install without issue. I am not sure 
what logs would help but would be happy to provide anything requested to 
diagnose this issue.

Changes:
 hw-detect (1.145) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Drop firmware-map file and surrounding logic: it never went further
     than a proof-of-concept, and we're approaching the firmware problem
     differently now (see: #989863).
   * If /firmware/dep11 is present (which should be the case starting with
     D-I Bullseye RC 3, for firmware-enabled images), query the udev
     database, extract modalias information, and use the patterns available
     under that directory to figure out which firmware packages might be
     helpful. Copy the relevant /firmware/<package>_*.deb files under
     /var/cache/firmware, and let the existing code enable non-free in
     apt-setup and install those packages in /target (see: #989863).
   * Check the actual module behind a given driver, since there might be a
     slight mismatch between the name coming up in dmesg (e.g. rtw_8821ce)
     and the actual module name (e.g. rtw88_8821ce). With many thanks to
     Daniel Lewart for the original patch (Closes: #973733).
   * Uniquify module list earlier in check-missing-firmware, to avoid
     repeating n times the same module if it requests n firmware files
     (e.g. iwlwifi).
   * Finally stop looking into the obsolete /dev/.udev/firmware-missing and
     /run/udev/firmware-missing locations, which were obsoleted upstream
     (udev) in 2013. This only generates noise in the installer's syslog.
   * When resuming parsing dmesg from a timestamp, just mention the
     timestamp in the log instead of the actual pattern, for better
     readability.
   * Set udevdir to /lib/udev/rules.d (instead of /etc/udev/rules.d), to
     appease lintian (udev-rule-in-etc).
   * Ignore iwl-debug-yoyo.bin requested by iwlwifi as it seems to be about
     debugging, it doesn't seem actually required, and it's not packaged
     anyway (see: #969264, 966218).
