how to load lsi 1068e sas driver when install proxmox 2.1

I have the same problem since the release of Proxmox 2 RC1, with the first vesion of December I had no problem...
Here's what I posted today on the proxmox users list :

Subj: Still can't install Proxmox 2 with lsi 1068e sas driver
I made a squeeze install:
( http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_Squeeze ) because since the upgrade to RC1 I can't boot on pve-kernel-2.6.32-10-pve and later versions (grub is OK but boot locks on the access of pve VG).

It seems I'm not alone as i have searched the forum and found :
http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/9754-how-to-load-lsi-1068e-sas-driver-when-install-proxmox-2-1

I've tried :
pve-kernel-2.6.32-11-pve normal/single user
pve-kernel-2.6.32-12-pve normal/single user
pve-kernel-2.6.32-13-pve normal/single user
If I boot with any squeeze kernel, everything is OK...
It was OK with the first release of Proxmox 2 (december).

The machine is an HP Z800 with an LSILOGIC MPT SAS BIOS C1068E SAS 1068E

This is becoming a real problem because we had a plan to use proxmox2 and we bought that machine for the project...

Any idea ?
Thank you

As you have not updated the ISO yet, I had to make an install with the ISO, then boot with a debian stable CD installer in rescue mode, then:

apt-get update
mount -a
apt-get install pve-kernel-2.6.32-14-pve
reboot

Now I can start my tests!!!
