I have a DELL PowerEdge SC440 that is currently running a vanilla 10.5.8 without problems, but Snowleopard doesn´t detect my SATA devices. My machine has a ICH7 controller (Intel 82801GB/GR/GH 8086:27c0). First, I received kernel panics, but after modifying IOATAFamily.kext extension (I used this one: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=186609) , it boots but without SATA devices!
The extension loads perfectly and the PATA devices are working. No idea what to do. Any clue?
Full Version: ICH7: sata devices not found in SL
I forget to say one thing. My motherboard doesn´t have any BIOS options to set AHCI mode 
Could this issue be the main problem?

Mine boots after replacing the IOATAFamily.kext with a modified that i found, but it only shows the flashdrive that i'm using to install snow leo, i'm using dg31pr that works with Leopard 10.5.7
