I had this same problem with Gentoo. Brand-new system with SATA hard drive, and the Gentoo livecd would not see it. It is a catch-22 -- you need to upgrade your distribution to install on the system, but the system cannot even be installed on it.

I just dug an ancient 2GB PATA drive from my junkpile and bootstrapped from that -- installed on it, updated it and poked it until it saw the SATA drive, created partitions on the SATA drive, and copied all the files over.

I don't know if it'll be that easy on Redhat Enterprise. Does it have any copyprotection that'll go bananas when you copy it?
