Z:gnu-www-ja-common-distros--c7a41e-Previous releases of Debian in/en

Previous releases of Debian included nonfree blobs with Linux, the kernel. With the release of Debian 6.0 (&ldquo;squeeze&rdquo;) in February 2011, these blobs have been moved out of the main distribution to separate packages in the nonfree repository. However, the problem partly remains: the installer in some cases recommends these nonfree firmware files for the peripherals on the machine.
