Any Linux/Unix work with SATA yet?

i got my computer in 2k, built it myself. top of the line then and better than most still now.
one problem however is i was never able to install unix because the old kernels were not compatible with SATA hard drives

i dont have any IDE drives nor do i want any

I want mine on SATA, but every time i try no matter what kind of linux/unix i want to install.. they all tell me the same thing
"Hard drive not found"

even Knopix that runs off a cd wouldnt boot because it doesnt see sata hard drives

Any one hear about a compatible version or some fixes for this?
