I finally got time (and DVD) to try the 10.5.2 rev.2 release (Zeph) on my system. The good news is that the Installer see my SATA HDD and IDE HDD (was not in 10.5.1), the bad news is that the Installer don't see my PATA HDD.

The thing is that my available HDD for OSX is PATA. I just want to know if I have some options available to make it work.

My system is:
MB: Asus K8VSE Deluxe (Chipset: VIA K8T800 [VT8383], SB: VIA VT8237)
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3400+ (SSE2)
VC: ATI Radeon 9800 Pro All-in-Wonder
