Hi Adrian,

The way I’ve got firmware on to my cds is via  adding them to the local repo 
that the Debian-CD uses to build the installation media. It adds them to the CD 
if you force firmware and contrib. I took all the firmware-all.deb files from 
non-free and contrib and added non-free and contrib to the local repo. 

I have for found your CD works fine on my RP3440 but not on my c8000 due to 
firmware with the CD-ROM.
