The usual reason the drive isn't found is that your hardware is too new for the OS version and it doesn't know the PCI identifiers. As F14 won't be upgraded you'll need to build yourself various new components at which point it's not FC14. You might be able to get stuff to work if the problem is a new motherboard type which defaults to the disk in legacy mode. If you have a BIOS or EFI option to put the disk controller it in AHCI mode that may do the trick. You'll still need to replace various packages for security reasons so you'll end up with something that isn't FC14. It's a meaningless definition anyway, count how many packages in FC14 as released are the same in FC14 when it was end of life .. so staying with an FC14 release even over its lifetime is in all but name little different to changing release. This is why for most product you really don't want to be using Fedora and someone probably goofed in deciding to do so, as you'll now need to actively track and fix all the known relevant security holes in packages used in your deployment. That's a lot of manpower compared with using a distro that does the work for you!
