Hi. Please in the future use more informative subject lines. There's too much traffic in this mailing list for everyone to read *everything*; so people rely on informative subject lines to decide what to read and what not. Without one, people are likely to just skip your email. See http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#bespecific for more (the whole document is worth reading, but this part is relevant).

The kernel on Sarge install disks (2.6.8?), as I understand it, has crappy SATA support. I understand that this has been fixed in more recent kernels. This is a common problem discussed on the Debian AMD64 mailing list. There are several possible solutions; two I've heard are: 1) install onto an IDE/PATA disk, build a more recent kernel, move your install to the SATA disk (including putting grub/lilo there), and pointing your BIOS to the new disk; 2) using a more recent build of the installer that includes a more recent kernel. But my main recommendation to you is to try the debian-amd64 mailing list, which is where most issues with installing and using amd64 port get discussed.
