It's not PCI, it's an sbus machine. I think the onboard esp and hme
show up as sbus devices. I think sbus can be probed like pci, but I
don't think discover has been trained to do so.
I think sarge d-i just modprobes esp and adds it to the list of
modules if any are detected.

With Microsoft, failure is not an option. It is a standard feature.
