For some reason I suspect whatever happens AFTER this warning. It's just
an INFO message after all, I don't care about zfcp so not configuring it
seems right to me, and last when I went poking about in anaconda it
looked like the next thing anaconda does is some sort of complicated
probe...

I to use both PATA and SATA drives. Mine use software RAID 1.

Is there any way to make anaconda really verbose, run it in a debugger,
or otherwise tell what the heck it's doing?
