Package: hw-detect, disk-detect, ethdetect
Version: 1.46
Wishlist: It would be nice if disk-detect and ethdetect would, in expert
mode, prompt the user for a list of modules to attempt to load, and
allow the user to un/select modules by hand (or via preseed).
(This would, at least, allow me to work around other known bugs such as
bug #388501.)

The installer already allows this through two mechanisms:
- at medium and low priority, you will be prompted for which modules
should or should not be loaded
- for modules loaded automatically by udev, you can blacklist specific
modules at the boot prompt [1] (ATM only in daily built images)
IMO this provides sufficient control over which modules get loaded to
allow the user to work around specific issues. Therefore closing this
request.
Cheers,
