Hello,
I had a similar experience. In case it may be of use, here's some
information. Please let me know if there's some other bits I should
provide.
The relevant lspci output is:
0000:00:12.0 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 4379
0000:00:14.1 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 4376
Which corresponds to this lspci -n lines:
0000:00:12.0 0101: 1002:4379
0000:00:14.1 0101: 1002:4376
Full lspci -v -v -v output is attached.
Summary:
* Sarge Official Installer: I could not manage to get it to work at
all, either in the first try, or when loading by hand the modules
specified below.
* Etch Beta1 Installer: At the "Partition Disks" stage, after
informing me that none could be found, it offers a list of
possible modules to load. After picking 'sd_mod' and 'sata_sil',
it works.
* Sarge Unofficial Installer with 2.6.12 kernel from Kenshi Muto [1]:
same deal as with Etch Beta1, but without the menu. IOW, "modprobe
sd_mod; modprobe sata_sil" in tty2 makes it work.

* Breezy Installer (for comparison purposes): completely autodetected.
