Bug Description

The d-i installer only shows a limited number of qeth devices after selecting:
"2: qeth: OSA-Express in QDIO mode / HiperSockets [*]" at the "Network device type" menu.

However, if one enters the d-i shell and looks for the available qeth devices there with:
lszdev qeth
the number can be (or is in my case) much higher.
In this particular case d-i displays only 42 qeth devices, but lszdev lists about 130 qeth devices.
And d-i does not offer a way to browse or scroll to the missing ones.
