Have I missed some hardware video configuration step? There should be a disable jumper on the motherboard or in the BIOS to turn off the onboard Mach64. Check your motherboard's manual. Note that you have to disable the serial ports in -c to install with a Mach. Once you get up you need to modify the kernel source and remove the sio3 probe. Instructions are in the FAQ.
