If Fedora's installation kernel won't detect your SATA controller then there's not an awful lot you can do except look for another distro with support for your controller built into its installation kernel. It would help if we knew what sort of board (and therefore controller) we were dealing with as that way we could steer you in the direction of a distro that would most likely support it.
