I heard that when installing 5.10 on machines with ATA and SATA disks
some people had more luck with SATA by unplugging the ATA disk. Maybe
that will help. You should definately have a look in BIOS and see thta
it's set up right. If windows is on the system now, does it see the
disk? What about the live Ubuntu session, can you mount the SATA drive
from there?
