it just refuses booting,
Any error messages before it gives up?
do i need the kernel for the special ide chipsets, cause the fic mainboard has the VIa chipset?
Not for booting, because IDE support is always enabled in our kernels. But
for using DMA/UDMA, you will need the kernel for special eide chipsets.
Once again, if you have a 6.3, try booting from the cdrom, it *should* work.
