Do you have "pciehp" in /etc/modules and "options pciehp
pciehp_force=1 pciehp_slot_with_bus=1" in /etc/modprobe.d/local?
(updating initrds and rebooting is needed too)
I have removed the pciehp mangling in the script as /etc/modules
(modprobe.d) looks like a more appropriate place for it.
Would adding this to README.Debian have helped you?
