Comments/Problems:
Bug #275006 is still alive, it seems. No errors on loading the aic79xx
module, but no disks get detected, and nothing shows up in the dmesg
output relating to finding a new scsi bus, new disks, etc. I may be
able to resolve it locally if I can get a newer kernel built for d-i,
but the fix most likely needs to be rolled into the daily images.
