I'm trying to install Debian Lenny on some Dell R610s but I've been having some major issues with the installation when trying to install with an AMD64 architecture kernel. I've also tried apt-get installing the amd64 kernel and selecting it at boot time but the system is unable to find the disks then too and halts when trying to start up the software raid on the disks.
The system I have is using an LSI Logic SAS1068E PCI-Express RAID controller and the controller is correctly detected using the i686 Lenny kernel. I've attached output of lspci -v to this e-mail from the system running i686 debian. Getting anything out of the amd64 is a right pain though because it seems that various other devices aren't properly being detected. For example, I've been unable to get a USB pen drive to be detected and thus mounted and I've not been able to get the NIC firmware loaded (Broadcom bnx2 firmware required). Since I'm unable to get any form of internal or external media mounted and the NIC isn't being properly detected, I've got no way of getting output of any commands easily off the server except page-by-page over serial. Has anyone else experience this issue, and are there any workarounds? I believe that the issue is discussed in two live Debian bugs (#528351 and #526525) but there seems to be some disparity over where people believe the bug to be. I've also been having issues with getting the keyboard working during the installer and have to use the remove KVM and specify noapic,nolapic as kernel options to the installer. Any use of USB keyboard seems to hang the system.
