'modprobe aic79xx' works just fine from VT2, but when I try go back to VT1 and detect hardware again, again it isn't found. I am running the installer from a usb drive with the netinst image (rc2). I've also tried this from a CD running the netinst image (rc1), which had the same results. > Please file an installation report [1] and include the output > of 'lcpci' > and 'lspci -n'. I can't find 'lspci'. I tried 'find / -name lspci', and I tried 'cat /proc/pci', but /proc/pci doesn't exist.
