that's a bit an excuse and also extremely inconvenient. Since
downloading of that firmware is not certain an eeasy procedure for the
website.
I bet many of the essential drivers could fit on the DVD, we are not
speaking of floppies here.
Also, most essentially, it is a matter of network driver, the rest can
stay on the non-free repository.
