System :: AMD 64 VIA Southbridge

I thought fine product and donated immediately USD 20,00, even
before trying to install it.
Unfortunately it does not install on AMD 64 with VIA Southbridge.
I tried every option (failsafe no usb no scsi drives etc).Otherwise my computer is normal (2 IDE drives and 1,5G memory Asus 8V-MX
motherboard VT 8251 Southbridge, Graphics is integrated in Northbridge).
When I try to install SuSE on harddisk it works.
I think the Kernel is not compiled to support this hardware.

Bad luck

Try DSL version 2.1b

Also, try booting with:

dsl vga=normal

Tks for the answer.
without failsafe dsl vga=normal it does not work at all.
With thos options Icome to the following point:
Uniform MutlPlatform E-IDE Revision 7.0.0beta4-2.4
VP_IDE controller at PCI slot 00:0f1
VP_IDE chipset version 7
VP_IDE not 100% native mode will probe IRQ later
VP-IDE unknown SouthBridge , disabling DMA
after this the system freezes and I ahve to reboot.
With SuSe Linux (9.2) it works- the same messages and then the IDE drive is recognozied.
Obiviously something is not compiled in the kernel.
