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.
discover1 had support for sbus, discover (aka discover2) does not. However, I was told by Colin Watson that d-i is using hotplug for device discovery and finding the correct drivers these days. That is a problem, because this approach relies on the fact that drivers are sysfs-aware and export all necessary information through it. The esp driver is not sysfs-trained, so that causes detection problems. Proper fix would be to add such support to the driver on the kernel side, but I have no idea what kind of effort that requires.
