To install woody with a 2.6.x kernel may be a bit of work. Perhaps downloading the latest beta of the sarge installer would be an option to you? I'm not certain, but I believe there is some support for SATA controllers there. http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ I think the 30M image suffices to boot, the rest is downloaded as needed. Or take the 100MB image which does include the base system. It shouldn't be a problem to install most things from the woody CDs you have (or if you don't want to risk mixing woddy and sarge, just install sarge from the network).
