Build Identifier: 

Going through the installer for Tumbleweed, the installer was not able to pick up my Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200 PCIe card. This never happened before.

After installing Tumbleweed the card was able to be picked up. Which is weird

Snapshot VERSION="20220414"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot into Tumbleweed installer from USB
2. Go through the Network Detection
3. WIFI card missing from detection


Expected Results:  
Pick up the WIFI Card as it had in previous snapshots

I am pretty sure that this is not a problem of the installer.

It might be a kernel problem; or it might be missing firmware for that WiFi card.

What is the module you would need?

Looks similar to bug 1197762.
Comment 5 Steffen Winterfeldt 2022-04-20 15:58:07 UTC 
Do you also get these 'Direct firmware load for ...' error messages ending
with 'no suitable firmware found!' in the kernel log?

You can check /var/log/boot.msg during installation or check the kernel messages
on console 4.
