So this means you were able to install 10.2 on your hardware? What BIOS settings do you use? Did you disable the promise controller? Do your harddisks run in sata1 or sata2 mode?
The promise is disabled in the BIOS, but I don't think this makes a difference. Before using brokenmodules=sata_promise, I tried to install with the promise disabled, but the kernel detects it anyway and tries to load the driver, which then breaks the install. My mainboard is the K8T800 Neo2, MSI model 6702E, which has two sata controllers, the Promise and one in the via8237 southbridge. Since I don't have any disks attached to the promise, I could use brokenmodules=sata_promise, then install onto sda/sdb, which are on the other sata controller.
