I've done somthing similar for Red Hat 9.  However, rather than backport 
the SATA support into the older kernel, I just replaced the kernel with 
the latest version (2.4.31).  Then, you have to modify the hwdata RPM to 
recognize the SATA controllers and rebuild the anaconda installer if you 
want it to be installable on SATA hardware at installation time.
