Checked now, module loads but the installer is still reporting no disk - but when breaking into the shell from the installer I noticed that all partitions are detected. So retrying disk detection at that point worked. Maybe a timing issue, probably due to some md arrays on my disks. Please tell if and what information would be helpfull, at the moment for me it's only a minor issue with the "retrying of disk detection" workaround available. At least a release note entry would be fine.
