First question: Why are you installing RH9? It's ANCIENT!

Second question: Have you explored the SATA chipset BIOS? Often you must 
organize your SATA drives into a logical disk even if you're not doing RAID. 
Some onboard motherboard BIOSes let you configure SATA drives to appear as 
plain, old IDE drives.
