Sadly, this did not work. I set the jumpers on the drives to SATA 1 (1.5GB) but the installation routine did exactly the same thing as before (did not automatically load the south bridge SATA controller, I selected via_sata manually, then when it came time to partition I was told there were no drives in the system).
What version of centos are you trying to install ? I am sitting here in front of a A8V, and its working fine. I suggest you revert to factory defaults on the bios, enable the promise sata interface, try centos-4.4 ( btw, i run x86_64 on there, but that should not make a diff, the i386 should work fine as well )
