Did you try:

0. verify dasd_mod , dasd_eckd_mod , dasd_fba_mod and dasd_diag_mod are
   not loaded:

    rmmod dasd_eckd_mod dasd_fba_mod dasd_diag_mod
    rmmod dasd_mod

1. load dasd_mod with the relevant dasd parameter , e.g:

     modprobe dasd_mod dasd=301,303,305

2. load the others:

      modprobe dasd_eckd_mod
      modprobe dasd_fba_mod
      modprobe dasd_diag_mod

and then look again at /proc/dasd/devices

No. This is no longer the case with SLES 8's installer
