Description of problem: HP stream netbooks and possibly others use Intel Wireless adapter 3165. Currently, Mageia 6 - rc installer does not insert firmware file /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265-14.ucode. Wireless does not work until this file is inserted manually. Netbooks often do not have an ethernet connection, complicating installation. Please add this firmware file to installer.
Package: newest package iwlwifi-agn-ucode, and the 7265-14 is still missing.
It should be using 7265-17 which we provide... Can you attach outputs of lspcidrake -v and journalctl -ab
Created attachment 9409 [details] lspcidrake and journal ctl as requested
Created attachment 9410 [details] lspcidrake -v output

I reinstalled MGA6-RC. Attempting to set up wireless from the installer failed with the message 'no driver found', but on first boot after installation, wireless configuration (using network applet) identified available networks and completed normally. I may have assumed that failure to connect to wireless from the installer implied absence of driver for the network adapter. Please mark this bug report as CLOSED/SOLVED.
Yeah, classical installer does not have access to nonfree firmware while running in installer mode, it only can install them so they are available after first boot
