I don't understand the point you are making in adding up the Drivers that *are* included. mount -o loop devuan_beowulf_3.1.0_amd64-netinstall.iso /mnt/tmp find /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/ -type f -name "firmware-*" /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/contrib/b/b43-fwcutter/firmware-b43-installer_019-4+deb10u1_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/contrib/b/b43-fwcutter/firmware-b43legacy-installer_019-4+deb10u1_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/main/f/firmware-free/firmware-linux-free_3.4_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/main/o/open-ath9k-htc-firmware/firmware-ath9k-htc-dbgsym_1.4.0-97-g75b3e59+dfsg-3_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/main/o/open-ath9k-htc-firmware/firmware-ath9k-htc_1.4.0-97-g75b3e59+dfsg-3_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-adi_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-amd-graphics_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-atheros_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-bnx2_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-bnx2x_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-brcm80211_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-cavium_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-intel-sound_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-intelwimax_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-ipw2x00_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-ivtv_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-iwlwifi_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-libertas_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-linux-nonfree_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-linux_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-misc-nonfree_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-myricom_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-netronome_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-netxen_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-qcom-media_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-qlogic_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-ralink_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-realtek_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-samsung_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-siano_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-ti-connectivity_20190114-2_all.deb /mnt/tmp/pool/DEBIAN/non-free/z/zd1211-firmware/firmware-zd1211_1.5-6_all.deb
