Inserting a vfat-formatted USB pen drive with the Debian firmware package 'firmware-qlogic_0.22_all.deb' does not work. In Expert Install mode, I see that at this very early stage of the installation process the directory: /lib/modules/2.6.30-2-itanium/kernel/fs has neither the 'ext3' nor 'fat' filesystem module, which appears to prevent the installer from finding the firmware. The Lenny ia64 netinst CD suffers from the same problem. I just tried a similar installation sequence using the squeeze_di_alpha1 i386 installer and found that the 'fat' module is present at this early stage.
