You probably have a "mesh" SCSI controller. Almost all OldWorld
Apple machines had them.
Early on in the installation process -- before the disk/hardware
discovery phase, switch to the "F2" console and type
modprobe mesh
Then, just before the reboot, switch to the "F2" console again, and
add the line
mesh
to the /target/etc/modules file.
I've submitted several bug reports on this topic. The developers
know about it, and may fix it sometime. It's not as easy to fix as
it sounds, because the mesh controller is not on the regular PCI
bus, so the normal hardware discovery programs never get a chance
to see it.
Enjoy!
