I disabled floppy in the bios, and it's now not timing out on floppy any
more.
It's still not detecting my disk, though. The installer says "No disk
drive detected".
When I boot Suse, I'm seeing the following kernel modules: via_rhine,
mii, sata_via. I can choose sata_via from the disk drivers list in the
Debian installer, but it does not detect a disk with it. :-(
