Are you installing the latest version of Redhat Linux, because some
older distributions do not have support or drivers for the new ATA
drives.

I suggest that you get the latest version from your distributor and then
install that.

It took me two days of downloading different ATA drivers and then got
the latest CD of Redhat only to install without a problem.

Regards

Roger
