All I can give you is a hint - it'll take some effort installing to a SATA drive.

Do some searching, you should be able to find a solution to this problem. It will be something like:
a) install a newer distro
b) get a kernel w/ sata support, put this on a bootdisk.
boot from it, and onto your cd installation.
That's all I know, I don't have a sata drive.
