Thanks.
From the Debian GNU/Linux Installation Guide in the chapter "Using the Debian Installer" is this page "Loading Missing Mirmware" suggests what you did.
;p
Debian is nice for when you want a solid/stable box and not worried about getting the latest software. If however you wan't newer packages debian is not so accommodating. Great distro though.
Yes, and if your wifi needs non-free firmware, you can download the non-free firmware to a USB stick and plug it in during install, and then the debian installer will automatically detect and use the appropriate firmware if needed. http://wiki.debian.org/Firmware#Firm...e_installation
The debian installer had no problem using and connecting with my wifi.

Just my personal opinion here, but to willingly use outdated software is just something I cannot do. I'm a manjaro/Arch man.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat as you. I really tried using debian but I always longed for the newer packages. I mean they are still on xfce 4.8. I ran crunchbang xfce for a while and needed a few newer packages and I went the whole apt-pinning route which just ended in disaster.
I'll stick to manjaro/arch for now.
