Can any body tell me that from where would i get the adaptec hance rapids sata driver for my pc? Would be grateful to you if any body provides me the correct information on the above issue.

There is no such thing as a distribution or its installer (generically) "having SATA support" (or not). Place a formatted floppy disk in your floppy drive, at the prompt, enter 'G' (Hance Rapids Raid), and then 'return'. The Hance Rapids Raid drivers will be loaded onto the floppy disk. When finished the Menu will return, simply enter '0', the 'Command Prompt window' will disappear.

'Enable' the 'SATA RAID Function' in the motherboard BIOS. Connect your two SATA hard drives to the SATA0_SB and SATA1_SB connections, then install Windows XP. I found what i needed for my Hance Rapids (Intel ICH5R) SATA RAID device inside the Intel. Create a floppy from the image and insert it at boot time.

Use the F6 option early in the installation process and place the floppy disk made above to load the Hance Rapids Raid drivers. In the BIOS the 'Onboard PCI66 SCSI' selection controls the two 68-pin SCSI connectors on the edge of the motherboard. This driver update can be found on the Adaptec website.
