Note! As of this RC2 version of Debian Bookworm, the system automatically
makes use of non-free firmware during install. If your intention is to avoid
all non-free firmware you should avoid using Debian Bookworm or search for a
downstream version of Debian Bookworm that strips out all non-free firmware.
