Things grew over time, initially for the unofficial netinst images with
firmware included:
stretch/firmware.cfg: export FORCE_CD_SIZE1=CD700
buster/firmware.cfg: export FORCE_CD_SIZE1=CD700
bullseye/firmware.cfg: export FORCE_CD_SIZE1=STICK1GB
And now for the official netinst images:
bookworm/netinst.cfg: export FORCE_CD_SIZE1=STICK1GB
trixie/netinst.cfg: export FORCE_CD_SIZE1=STICK1GB
forky/netinst.cfg: export FORCE_CD_SIZE1=STICK1GB
and indeed the STICK1GB addition for bookworm happened right when we
were working on splitting non-free-firmware from non-free.
