I went to http://debian.inode.at/debian-amd64/debian-installer/2005-04-24/monolithic and took the mini.iso. I went through the installation to the point where "No partitionable media were found", did 'modprobe sata_sis' from console 2. After that sata_sis and libata were loaded, but the error still remains. uname -a says: Linux debian 2.6.8-10-amd64-generic #1 Fri Jan 28 04:09:34 CET 2005 x86_64 unkonwn. Are there any ideas?
