Hi!
Please keep the bug report in Cc. Please also note that I am just
trying to help here. Debian is a volunteer project, and owe you
nothing particularily.
Your problem seems unlikely to be directly in the installation software,
but more in the kernel, which is not something the debian-installer team
is directly responsible of.

Could you please look at #410817 [1] and see if that bug report match
your problems with the megaraid driver?

When you say "does not work either" you are talking specifically about
megaraid support, right?

Is every port configured in the same way? No SATA (fake) RAID activated
or something similar in the BIOS?
