In debian-installer are the programms "discover" and "hotplug",
they read identification numbers of the hardware
and load the matching kernel module.
We need the output of `lspci -n` for that, or even better
( lspci ; lspci -n ) | sort
Send to information in a bugreport ( see
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting for details )
against the package 'discover-data'
