+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> It can't be &quot;free&quot; and have &quot;non-free&quot; firmware... previously the
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> firmware only were on the Live CD's. I am not sure anything has been
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> changed in that regard (i.e. I didn't see the matter get discussed
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> yet).
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Correct. It's the same dilemma you have in Mandriva. You either need a
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> cable attached to use the free edition or you have to use the &quot;ONE
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Edition&quot; and install all the needed software later (ex:
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> system-config-printer, which is not on the ONE cds). If you want to
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> have a free distribution there's no way around this as long as there
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> is the need for non-free firmware to use certain hardware.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> A possible solution for people with such a setup could be a non-free
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &quot;driver cd ISO&quot; which they could include in the installation process.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> This is actually a very good idea, and already supported by the installer,
+</I>&gt;<i> so it should work nicely...
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I think this is the way to do it...
+</I>
+I'll open an &quot;enhancement&quot; bug for that.
