the treatment of "IDE" devices as a seperate /dev/hd* class was removed
from the linux kernel quite a long time ago, now everything is mapped to
'SCSI' devices, /dev/sd*
the anaconda in whatever older version you're running is not going to
work with a newer kernel, you'll need a newer anaconda, and at this
point, what you have no longer resembles CentOS
