I had the same problem with another MB. The problem seems to be related to the SB600 chip. The only method I found to cope with is to use a kernel with the SATA support totally disabled and putting the chip (BIOS) in "Legacy IDE mode" if your BIOS has such an option. I guess that the kernel > 2.6.20 will work as some enhancements have been done in the kernel related to the SB600 chip. Another problem is that the SATA drives are not created whith /dev/hd... names but with /dev/sd.... If you can find an installer with a kernel > 2.6.20 I think that you will have a full working system without any problem.
