So it seems we uncovered 2 issues with this bug.  The first is the typo
in the nic-modules file which Steve fixed.  I think it might be a bit
harder to test that fix as it would require rebuilding the debian-
installer against the updated nic-modules file.  The second issue is the
real culprit of this bug.  After speaking with cjwatson, this bug is
really with initramfs on the running system and the bug itself is with
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions .  Apparently it hardcodes a
set of "interesting" NIC modules that needs to be updated.  I've gone
ahead and added an initramfs-tools task to this bug report to track it.
Thanks.
