Asus SK8N - Promise PDC20378 SATA

[Petr Dvorak <petr@touskov.net>]

Hi,
I have been trying to install Debian on SATA disks on Asus SK8N 
mainboard. I tried older version of Debian installer, Fedora Core 2 
(AMD64) and now the newest Debian Installer. But I still have problem 
with Promise PDC20378 SATA controller.
When installer loads disk modules, is freezes by loading sd_mod.

Loading module 'sd_mod' for 'SCSI disk support' ...

Loading of promise_sata is OK.

With IDE disks, mainboard runs well.
Is there anyone, who has some experience with this SATA controller under 
Debian?

Thanks.
