If you add ahci to /etc/mkintird/modules.conf that should make sure the
initrd loads that module. Then install 2.6.12 or regenerate the initrd
for it, and on your next boot ahci just might work.
If you already installed 2.6.12, you can do mkinitrd -o
/boot/initrd.img-2.6.12-1-..,whatever to generate a new one which should
include the ahci module since it is in the modules.conf file.
