Right, then the installer knows what to do. I think this should go into the Debian installation docs, there are a lot of boxes with graphic cards out which are not supported by Linux. But the low level SCSI-driver is missing in this image, or any low level SCSI drivers for that matter. There are only the high level modules there, like sd_mod.ko and sr_mod.ko: Nov 30 00:06:32 hw-detect: Using discover version 1. Nov 30 00:06:35 hw-detect: Detecting hardware...
