can I install OSX86 on a sata hardrive?

[oneshot]

Well I've looked on google and arround on forums a bit and I decided just to post the question =)

When I installed OSX86 way back when, I remember that I had to install it on a IDE Hardrive because It wouldn't recognize my SATA hardrive >_<

This causes problems because my motherboard is set up to support a sata hardrive and 1 CD/DVD player, and since my cable that should be going into my CD/DVD player is used for my Hardrive, I cannot use my CD/DVD player =(

I was wondering if I needa install something on my CD or something like that.

My distro is Kalyway Leopard 10.5.2
