Once the USB installation is booted, it’s actually udev which takes the
responsibility of loading modules like AHCI (the problem David reported
is in the *installed* system, where the AHCI modules have to be
available in the initrd.)

So there really are this many storage devices in the machine?

Does running ‘udevadm trigger’ helps detect any missing device?

Thanks,
