paste some debug output for people to work from, eg `dmesg`, `lspci`,
maybe even `parted -l` ... the usuals :-)

are you trying to install to an existing partition (eg. on LVM2 or
something) or wipe the exisint install? IOW, can you really not see
the disk, or ...

... need some output/detail -- i literally have a nearly identical
server (same proc/ram/SB, but i use an ASUS board, and ATI card ...
Nvidia==yuk, and just recently installed a 2TB RAID1) and i've never
had issue.

also, is the disk on an onboard sata port, or an pci-e slot?  is you
BIOS using AHCI or ATA for sata host controller?  you want AHCI unless
you boot Windows XP.
