Debian also ships an iso with the nonfree firmware; look for the
"unofficial" set. Not sure what's so "non-official" about them, since
they're packaged by the Debian iso team.
Devuan's like Debian, but it includes the non-free firmware in its
kernel. It should install just fine. Devuan is debian without SystemD
(the initialization system and services manager found in most modern
distros except Slint). What branch of Fedora did you get, that's free
software-only? the standard release has the non-free kernel blobs for
things like the non-free Intel wifi radio.
Since we're talking about the accessibility of various distros, what of
Void and Jentoo? The installer for Void isn't accessible, but a friend
managed to bootstrap it and now he packages for it. I think there are
some folk, listening, who may chime in about the accessibility, but
steep learning curve, of their favorite, Jentoo. In case it means
anything, Jentoo has a "ports tree", like the BSD. Basically, you build
most of the system from sources.
Cheers,
Dave H.

Is it, like Debian, only free software, or do they also provide a
non-free Iso?
