Just tried installing again with 24 July testing image and sid image.
Modprobe allowed me to detect my drive (as I mentioned in my last email)
but it STILL LOCKS UP WHEN I TRY TO FORMAT THE EXT3 PARTITION!
Any ideas as to why it's doing that?? This is getting very frustrating

Hey, I think I might have found a workaround. I read a message under
Bug#257168 with Message-ID:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
which gave me an idea.
Running the 10 Jul image of sarge with "expert 26" I
waited until the hardware detection (which didn't find my HD) was
complete then ran "modprobe scsi_mod"
I took both suggestions. I'm attaching the text outputs of both report-hw
and the two cats.
Thanks for the help and please let me know if there's any other info you need!

Is there another way to execute lspci? Can you install it off the CDROM to
the ramdisk?

No-go on that one either. I used the 21 June image. In expert mode, it
said something about needing an IDE to RAID adapter driver or something
like that.
Here's a link to the Promise driver source I mentioned earlier:
