I tried install debian testing, using the weekly d-i image (nonfree).  All
went as expected, until I got to the partitioning section.  Trying to
format a partition as xfs failed.  I changed to tty, and when running
mkfs.xfs by hand, I received an error message regarding missing
libinih.so.1.  I noticed this new library once xfsprogs migrated to testing
on another machine; additionally, the package was included on the image
itself (as I found the deb and was able to extract by hand), however.

In case I got the version wrong, I used "firmware-testing-amd64-netinst.iso
<https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/cd-including-firmware/weekly-builds/amd64/iso-cd/firmware-testing-amd64-netinst.iso>"
