RH9's pretty old. The newest version is Fedora Core 4, which should have SATA support.

For what it's worth - SATA drives are seen as scsi - (sda1 etc) how you get RH9 install to look for that i'm not sure. There must be a script somewhere that mounts the drives?

I use RH9 on and older system, but wouldn't think of putting it on my new 64bit x2 system. There is nothing wrong with it - it's just dated.
