Hi,
I wonder if the (untested) simple recipe below would work.
It would confirm that the missing QLOGIC firmware
was indeed the culprit.
I hope it will help !
Regards,

# download firmware-qlogic
apt-get download firmware-qlogic
# become root (to preserve rights)
su -
# install genisoimage (if not already)
apt-get install genisoimage
# mount the CD image
mkdir my-mount-point && mount -o ro,loop debian-10.0-alpha-NETINST-1.iso my-mount-point
# extract the initramfs
mkdir my_workdir1 && cd my_workdir1
