the problem is that your machine's PCI vendor/device-IDs are not included in the pci.lst file inside the /usr/share/systemimager/boot/*/standard/boel_binaries.tar.gz archive. Therefore the autodetection of the drive fails for your machine's SATA controller. This is not a problem of OSCAR, we simply cannot keep track of all new hardware IDs showing up on the horizon. Your workaround solves the problem. The autodetection of the controller still fails, but as the module is loaded manually you will be ready to access the drives when needed. Alternatively you can add your device's vendor/device ID to the pci.lst file inside the boel_binary tgz. When the autodetection fails, you might need to setup a hardware.lst file inside the image (in /etc/systemconfig/), otherwise the sc-initrd might miss the driver's modules.
