Can this Ubuntu livecd mount and read the harddrive? can you pull up a terminal and see the hardrive with cfdisk? If so, then make note of which modules are used to access the drive and you may have to modprobe them manually from a terminal in the install. If the modules you need aren't available in the install, then you can perhaps put them on a floppy or some other media that you can read in the install. have you looked for help on the debian-laptop list?
