If any of the hardware in your system <strong>requires non-free firmware to be
loaded</strong> with the device driver, you can use one of the
<a href="https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/firmware/wheezy/current/">\
tarballs of common firmware packages</a> or download an <strong>unofficial</strong> image including these <strong>non-free</strong> firmwares. Instructions how to use the tarballs
and general information about loading firmware during an installation can
be found in the Installation Guide (see Documentation below).

<strong>Notes</strong>
</p>
<ul>
<li>
For downloading full CD and DVD images the use of BitTorrent or jigdo
is recommended.
</li><li>
For the less common architectures only a limited number of images
from the CD and DVD sets is available as ISO file or via BitTorrent.
The full sets are only available via jigdo.
</li><li>
The multi-arch <em>CD</em> images support i386/amd64; the installation is similar to installing
from a single architecture netinst image.
</li><li>
The multi-arch <em>DVD</em> image supports i386/amd64; the
installation is similar to installing from a single architecture full
CD image; the DVD also includes the source for all included packages.
</li><li>
For the installation images, verification files (<tt>SHA256SUMS</tt>,
<tt>SHA512SUMS</tt> and other) are available from the same directory as the
images.

## Translators: copy/paste from devel/debian-installer/errata
<h3 id="errata-r0">Errata for release 7.0</h3>
<dl class="gloss">
<dt>Installation of GRUB bootloader may fail if more than one disk device is available.</dt>
<dd>When there is more than one disk available during installation
(for example one hard disk and one USB stick, as it is commonly the case when
booting the installer from a USB stick), <code>grub-install</code> may run into
problems: it was reported several times, that the GRUB bootloader was
installed onto the USB stick instead of the hard disk containing the newly-installed system.
<br />
To avoid running into this, make sure to answer <q>No</q> when the following question
is asked during the installation process: <q>Install the GRUB boot loader to the
master boot record?</q>; it should be possible to specify the right device at the
next step: <q>Device for boot loader installation</q>.
<br />
If the installation finished successfully despite a wrong GRUB configuration, it should be
possible to recover using the rescue mode of the installer: chroot into the root filesystem,
mount any additional boot partition if applicable (like <code>/boot</code> and/or
<code>/boot/efi</code> for an EFI system, see <code>/etc/fstab</code>), and
run <code>grub-install</code> with the proper device as parameter.
<br />
<b>Status:</b> This issue will hopefully be fixed in the second Wheezy point release.
</dd>
<dt>Desktop installations on i386 do not work using CD#1 alone</dt>
<dd>Due to space constraints on the first CD, not all of the expected GNOME desktop
packages fit on CD#1. For a successful installation, use extra package sources (e.g.
a second CD or a network mirror) or use a DVD instead.
<br />
<b>Status:</b> It is unlikely more efforts can be made to fit more packages on CD#1.
</dd>
<dt>Potential issues with UEFI booting on amd64</dt>
<dd>There have been some reports of issues booting the Debian Installer in UEFI mode
on amd64 systems. Some systems apparently do not boot reliably using <code>grub-efi</code>, and some
others show graphics corruption problems when displaying the initial installation splash
screen.
<br />
If you encounter either of these issues, please file a bug report and give as much detail
as possible, both about the symptoms and your hardware - this should assist the team to fix
these bugs. As a workaround for now, try switching off UEFI and installing using <q>Legacy
BIOS</q> or <q>Fallback mode</q> instead.
<br />
<b>Status:</b> More bug fixes might appear in the various Wheezy point releases.
</dd>
<dt>Erroneous firmware prompt with some Intel Wireless cards</dt>
<dd>If you have an Intel Wireless 6005 or 6205 card then the installer will
prompt for the firmware file <code>iwlwifi-6000g2a-6.ucode</code>.
This file is not included in the <code>firmware-iwlwifi</code> package and is not actually
needed. You must answer <code>no</code> to continue with installation.
<br />
<b>Status:</b> This issue is fixed in the first Wheezy point release.
</dd>
<dt>Missing beep at installer startup</dt>
<dd>For accessibility reasons, a beep should be emitted when
the installer’s bootloader is waiting for input. Unfortunately,
a bug made it disappear in the first Wheezy Alpha release, and that
was only reported right before the third Wheezy Release Candidate.
<br />
<b>Status:</b> This issue is fixed in the first Wheezy point release.
</dd>
<!-- leaving this in for possible future use...
<dt>i386: more than 32 mb of memory is needed to install</dt>
<dd>
The minimum amount of memory needed to successfully install on i386
is 48 mb, instead of the previous 32 mb. We hope to reduce the
requirements back to 32 mb later. Memory requirements may have
also changed for other architectures.
</dd>
-->
</dl>
<if-stable-release release="wheezy">
<p>
Improved versions of the installation system are being developed
for the next Debian release, and can also be used to install wheezy.
For details, see
<a href="$(HOME)/devel/debian-installer/">the Debian-Installer project
page</a>.
