Bug#737750: debian-installer: Netboot initrd does not download ata-modules or sata-modules udebs



Package: debian-installer
Version: wheezy
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i

Debian's initrd.gz for debian-installer does not download ata-modules or sata-modules udebs, rendering the initrd useless on systems with AHCI controllers - more specifically, it will boot, but detect no disks.

Many systems lack a legacy IDE mode and therefore this is a serious problem.

I can attach other logfiles later, but the jist of it is that it doesn't even attempt to fetch the udebs.
