I just installed Jessie on a laptop with Realtek wifi card. And
installer did not find firmware in usb stick. I had to open another
console, mount usb stick, copy firmware to /lib/firmware/rtl_wifi - then
installer would find it. So you could try copying that firmware file to
/lib/firmware/rtl_nic directory (You need to create directory alos).
