So I understand that the installation is trying to figure out where the CD-ROM and HDD is, but I am not able to get to the point after choosing the location of the CD in the installation process. Right after I choose it,
it scans the CD, then as you have said it looks for the HDD. But when it begins that process, it gets Error 22 while getting fs type.
The motherboard only supports SATA, but has options such as compatibility mode and enhanced mode. Only in compatibility mode is it able to detect the CD-ROM when I enter installation, it does not detect the CD-ROM in the installation process for any other mode. So the bios is setup to have both CD-ROM and HDD in compatibility mode.
I have also noticed that the %disk output on the device output(before pressing "Enter" to begin installation) shows the following:
%disk 0x01F0-0x01F7 14 - type=W0 unit=0 cyls=9964 hds-255 secs=63
I've compared that output with the 5.0.7 pre-installation output, and the cyls seem to be completely different as well, it being cyls=16709.
Not sure if that matters though.

NAME
ahci - Advanced Host Controller Interface SATA controller driver
SYNOPSIS
sata@unit-address
DESCRIPTION
The ahci driver is a SATA framework-compliant HBA driver that supports SATA HBA controllers that are compatible with the Advanced Host Con-
troller Interface 1.0 specification. AHCI is an Intel-developed protocol that describes the register-level interface for host controllers
for serial ATA 1.0a and Serial ATA II. The AHCI 1.0 specification describes the interface between the system software and the host con-
troller hardware.
The ahci driver currently supports the Intel ICH6/7/8/9, VIA vt8251 and JMicron AHCI controllers which are compliant with the Advanced Host
Controller Interface 1.0 specification. Note that while the Intel ICH6/7/8/9, VIA vt8251 and JMicron AHCI controllers support standard
SATA features, the ahci driver currently only supports hard disk, ATAPI SATA DVD, hotplug and NCQ (Native command queuing). Port multiplier
and power management are not yet supported.
CONFIGURATION
The ahci module contains no user configurable parameters.
FILES
/kernel/drv/ahci
32-bit ELF kernel module (x86).
/kernel/drv/amd64/ahci
