  It worked now. I can also modprobe directly for the smc-ultra and it
does pickup the 8390 module automatically. I am sure I have tried that
before filing the bug report. 

  In any case I still encounter problems:

1. When I am trying to use the menu it doesn't seem to get the modules.
In particular, it seems to keep marking the same menu option that I was
at with no indication that something went wrong. Only when I manually 
modprobe for the smc-ultra (which is what I need the 8390 for) in the
2nd VT it seems to progress as planed.

2. In addition, why it doesn't seem to pick aic7xxx when I boot with 

    linux aic7xxx

(but without any parameters for aic7xxx). Was I meant to get an aic7xxx
module for the cd-drivers.img floppy? modprobe aic7xxx manually in the
2nd VT also shows that it has no such module.
http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/cvs/debian-installer/doc/INSTALLATION-HOWTO
specifically exclude aic7xxx, and a few others, from the requirement to
get a module for it. See section 2.1.1, SCSI CD drives.
