Package: Debian installer
Severity: normal
I have a IBM ServeRAID 3L SCSI controller, with 2 scsi disk
I use it on my desktop at home
I have install Debian Sarge by 2 floppy, with network as source
The hardware auto-detect don't found my controller
At the time to part the disks, the controller is hidden, but
if i go on alt-f2 console and do 'insmod ips' and
return to the partiotion disk stage, the installer see
the controller, and it allow me to work on scsi disks
the 'insmod ips' solve the problem, that it!

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful
The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet.
In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.
You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.
If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.
Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
