Hi,
I recently installed a debian on a SATA machine and I also had problems
booting a installation the normal way. (Either debian and gentoo installation
had problems detecting the drive). But I noticed the most recent knoppix cd
whould boot and detect the hardware in a 'normal' fashion. So I'd suggest
doing an install booted from a knoppix cd.
