Re: SATA support in RH9

Legacy mode is in the BIOS settings.  Legacy more essentially turns them back 
to PATA drives.  Get the latest errata kernel from redhat.  Or use up2date.
If you download it from ftp.redhat.com, use rpm -ivh kernel* and not the 
standard rpm -Uvh or you will loose your old kernel as an option on boot.

After you install that kernel, change the BIOS back to enhanced and the drives 
will now be recognized.
