In Debian you just install the firmware package, udevl will handle it
then. If you have to boot from it, you need to rebuild your initrd after
installing the firmware package.
The installer doesn't support non-free modules yet unfortunately, but
with some not too complicated tricks you can install Debian without
problems.
