I'd suggest working around it by not switching virtual consoles; instead start the installation in expert26 mode, and use the menu item to start a shell prompt and load the module at the right place. Probably your SATA controller is not listed in the discover2 database, which is why the installer did not know to load that module. If you can send us the output of lspci on your machine, we can fix that. -- see shy jo
