I already have installed firmware-realtek. Seems that firmware-realtek package
include:
 * Realtek RTL8192SU firmware, version 902B (RTL8192SU/rtl8192sfw.bin)
 * Realtek RTL8105E-1 firmware (rtl_nic/rtl8105e-1.fw)
 * Realtek RTL8111D-1/RTL8168D-1 firmware (rtl_nic/rtl8168d-1.fw)
 * Realtek RTL8111D-2/RTL8168D-2 firmware (rtl_nic/rtl8168d-2.fw)
 * Realtek RTL8168E-1 firmware (rtl_nic/rtl8168e-1.fw)
 * Realtek RTL8168E-2 firmware (rtl_nic/rtl8168e-2.fw)
 * Realtek RTL8168E-3 firmware, version 0.0.4 (rtl_nic/rtl8168e-3.fw)
 * Realtek RTL8168F-1 firmware, version 0.0.4 (rtl_nic/rtl8168f-1.fw)
 * Realtek RTL8168F-2 firmware, version 0.0.4 (rtl_nic/rtl8168f-2.fw)

but not  for module r8169:
rtl_nic/rtl8168g-3.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8168g-2.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8106e-2.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8106e-1.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8411-2.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8411-1.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8402-1.fw

I'm saying this warning is the reason because is the only warning I have
during installation process. Then, booting the system, I'm stuck after:

Decompressing Linux... Parsing ELF... No relocation needed... done.
Booting the kernel.
Loading, please wait...
