There is already such a "script" in the debian-installer :) Actually,
I can't really see the reason for having another one, especially if we
consider that this thread was started as a rant about the fact that
closed firmware for wifi cards is not available at install time in
Devuan, which in turn has very little to do with automagic
configuration of the wifi network....
