With all due respect, 99% of the build code for the debian-installer is yours. As well as the build pulls 99% UDEBs from official debian repositories. i.e., this is a Debian issue, not mine -- as I did not even touch that code and/or modules -- which 1 month ago actually did work smooth: Netboot debian-installer was unable to load firmware from second USB for wifi connection; accordingly, in another virtual screen, I mounted the 2nd USB and manually copied the firmware directory onto the installer environment /lib. d-i then detected the wifi signal, etc. Second, report on this unofficial jessie-backports kernel 4.9.16-1+reiser4.0.1 sheds light on the fact I experienced *no issue* with module i915, as had been reported by (maintainer?): < https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=858078 > thus, in a collateral manner, I am contributing to official debian development. Finally, I am not requesting *any* support. I am simply reporting that your d-i pulling official UDEBs actually have been successful, with minor modifications and a few extra UDEBs of mine, in my installation experience, following Debian documentation guidelines: "We also encourage installation reports to be sent even if the installation is successful, so that we can get as much information as possible on the largest number of hardware configurations." < https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/ch05s04.html.en#submit-bug > If you are still 'bothered' with my sporadic submissions, I encourage you to modify the documentation to specifically exclude the glaring omission.
