Interesting thread but it doesn't answer the posters real question which is automagical detection of hardware. My technique for such events is to boot a Knoppix cd and bootstrap Debian proper in a chroot environment. You can then copy the knoppix /etc files to the chroot, trimming any cruft out of the knoppix /etc. Hell with morphix you can LVM a scsi array before dumping the files to disk preconfigured to what ever system or application package I want. See debian-non-profit for the joys of Debian/Morphix, beats the pants off aptitude. Though to be honest I use <anti-christ>Gentoo</anti-christ> live CD because of its EVMS package to carve up scsi arrays before installs.
