Reorganize non-free WiFi firmware blobs
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
* Move them to the actual location where Debian 11 may locate them
  (though d-i won't detect them unless you re-plug the media)
* Also 'add brcmfmac43455-sdio.Raspberry' which should really be named
  'brcmfmac43455-sdio.Raspberry Pi Foundation-Raspberry Pi 4 Model B.txt'
  but d-i's firmware locator also chokes on spaces... This appears to
  be a copy of 'brcmfmac43455-sdio.txt' that d-i insists on finding.

May I ask what d-i's firmware locator is @pbatard @jlinton ?

I'm not really sure I understand the question.

These files were basically clones of the files provided in the linux-firmware package:

There's a couple of references to "d-i's firmware locator" and "d-i" in this commit message, just curious what that is?

We had to do a symlink thing in a package of this firmware:

d-i means Debian installer.

Per #76:

Debian installer can't locate WiFi firmware blobs unless the USB is replugged. And it seems to choke on spaces, i.e. should request brcmfmac43455-sdio.Raspberry Pi Foundation-Raspberry Pi 4 Model B.txt but truncates that to brcmfmac43455-sdio.Raspberry instead. Also, why the heck does Debian request brcmfmac43455-sdio.Raspberry Pi Foundation-Raspberry Pi 4 Model B.txt alongside brcmfmac43455-sdio.txt?

Basically, Debian installer appears to have a bug where it chokes on spaces when trying to locate firmware binaries, so this is what this patch is trying to address.
