Dear Steve, et al.
Thanks for your efforts on trying to bundle non-free with a simple net
install media.
I tried it on an HP Pavilion G6 that had Windows 8.1. Freed up some
space and gave it a go.
Everything seems to finish correctly, but upon restart there is no boot
to grub, no Ethernet network connection and no video.
If I press F9 during boot, I can see the Debian option and that takes me
to grub.
However, when selecting the first option, I see things trying to load,
and then get to a blank screen and blinking cursor.
Upon trying it again, I choose the advanced options which will boot to a
terminal prompt, but there is no network connection available.
(connect: Network is unreachable)
It seems that the installer should look to identify the existing
hardware and let the user confirm the choices and match up non-free
drivers that way.
Thought you'd like to know.
Regards,
Michael
