Dear Maintainer,
1. Please help to include firmware for MT7921 and MT7925 WIFI Combo
cards.
The firmware should support both WIFI and BT features.
Your firmware is non-free, so it is packaged separately (source package firmware-nonfree, binary package firmware-mediatek). But it is also
included in the netinst image.
2. To include these firmware in the DVD or netinst LiveCD is also
suggested.
The netinst and live CD images are 2 different things.
Tested hardware:
1. MT7921E M.2 PCIE dongle.
2. MediaTek Genio 1200 EVK.
Installed from:
debian-testing-arm64-netinst-20250630-1.iso
Kernel error log:
[ 4.684020] bluetooth hci0: firmware:
failed to load mediatek/BT_RAM_CODE_MT7961_1_2_hdr.bin (-2)
[ 4.784652] mt7921e 0000:01:00.0: firmware:
failed to load mediatek/WIFI_MT7961_patch_mcu_1_2_hdr.bin (-2)
[...]
The installer should detect these log messages, then:
1. Install the required firmware package
2. Remove and reload the driver
Is that not happening?
Ben.

This sentence contradicts itself - no actually it doesn't.
