Yesterday i was try to install debian with my new server. it was Intel Core 2 with SATA hardisk. but it’s failed. really confused because my disc is running well. after searching for this problem, i found answer from debian website.
this is answer from bugs.debian.org :
Try booting with 'linux26' since the default is 2.4 kernel, which does not like sata in general. 2.6 has better sata support, although if the machine is very new it may still not be supported.
Sarge was released in the summer last year, so any hardware made by about the begining of 2005 is supported in general (there are exceptions of course). Anything that only came out in the second half of 2005 is almost certainly unsupported. That is true of all distributions in general. Hardware newer than the release of the distribution almost never works right.
