Package: debian-installer
Version: wheezy
Severity: grave
Tags: d-i
Justification: renders package unusable
Debian's initrd.gz for netboot installs on amd64 does not include the ata-modules or sata-modules udebs. This renders the package wholly unusable on systems with AHCI controllers - and legacy mode is not supported by newer BIOSes.
-- System Information:
Debian Release: jessie/sid
APT prefers testing
APT policy: (500, 'testing')
Architecture: amd64 (x86_64)
Kernel: Linux 3.12-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores)
Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash

Correct. These are downloaded from the network on demand. If this is not
working for you then please file a normal severity bug with the
appropriate logs (See

Have you tried it?
As I say, if it doesn't work then please refile with logs, in the
meantime I'm closing this bug.
Thanks,
Ian.
