I just had a look at the debian-installer package lists and indeed, the
sata-modules udeb is not included in the initrd for powerpc [1] and
ppc64 [2].
Strange that no one stumbled across this before. I wonder how people managed
to install on the G5 desktops in the past. Apparently it must have worked
someone or these machines use PATA emulation?
Either way, I'm going to fix it.
