HI

      from   /var/log/bsdinstall_log   :

/DEBUG: f_getvar: var=[text] value=[wifi-firmware-mediatek-kmod-mt792x] r=0
pkg: No packages available to install matching 
'wifi-firmware-mediatek-kmod-mt792x' have been found in the repositories/

     -------------------

    Installer   made   a  guess  from  info  found   on  Motherboard 
and  tried  to  install  a  firmware  that  does not  exist .    ( yet )
    H/W   is  the  ASROCK    TRX50   motherboard.   with 
MediaTek  802.11ax Wi-Fi 6E Module.

      Is  the  bsdinstaller  expected  to  guess at  what Firmware  
  can  be  installed  ?

     Regards
