It must be kudzu or the like, during setup this entry is noted:
step `setupSCSI' finished
* starting step `doPartitionDisks'
* warning: bad magic number at /usr/bin/perl-install/partition_table_empty.pm line 29.
* found a dos partition table on /dev/hde at sector 0
* test_for_bad_drives(/dev/hde)
* missing module floppy
* setting probeall scsi_hostadapter to ide-scsi
* IDE Zip: hdc => sda
but as you can note from fstab there is no sda entry.
