Yes it does, but not for all controllers and sometimes it needs 
workarounds (like changes in BIOS settings). Some users have better 
success with the 2.4 kernel; others with the 2.6 kernel.

Main problem is not the installer itself, but kernel support for SATA. We 
hope to be able to offer installation using the 2.6.11 kernel fairly soon 
which should solve a lot of SATA installation problems.
