Bingo! Chris wins the prize!  It *is* sda for the floppy.

However, the driver I'm trying to load is for the embedded RAID
controller and not for the hard disk - the installer sees the disk
just fine without any additional driver, which is why I was thrown
off by the sda choice - assuming that it was the hard drive.

Thanks to all who responded!
