Description

We currently use a script which downloads the Debian netboot image and adds non-free firmware. It was mentioned on debian-devel that official images with firmware are now available, so maybe we should switch to those.

I looked into this last week. Unfortunately that's not a viable option, only firmware-enriched ISO images are provided at this point. There are some talks to provide a separate archive section covering firmware only, maybe that will also enable allow the download of official PXE images with firmware in the future, but marking Invalid for now.
