Actually, I installed on my PATA drive. The SATA has Micro$haft Windoze on it. So, yeah, you may be right. Someone else who has installed on SATA may be able to help you better. Try the open source forum.

PS: I was able to detect SATA both off LiveCD and after HD installation. Mepis auto mounted the NTFS drives from SATA and I remember playing Mp3's from these drives. No write access though.
