!very Important Hardware Issue!


I am running win 2k, but i want to run fedora core 10. I built my custom Biostar 200n with 512 megs of kingston hyper X technology DDR Ram, seagate 120 gig SATA hard drive,(USING CONTROLLER "VIA VT6420"), i DONT KNOW what cd drive, but that or the RAm shouldnt matter, and onboard nvidia sound and video.(which shouldnt matter either.)

Heres the problem... When I try to install Redhat 10/fedora core it tells me that it could not find any devoces, and it gives me the option of choosing one manually, or restarting the setup...AT THIS POINT I BELIEVE THAT MY HARD DRIVE IS COMPATIBLE WITH FEDORA CORE/REDHAT AND THAT MY VIA CONTROLLER IS NOT! However, via does not have drivers for its "VIA VT6420"

ANY HELP WOULD BE VERY MUCH APPERCIATED
thanks again
