Problem with setup_harddisks

Hello, we have a problem with setup_harddisks on some special machines: We are using FAI 3.2.4 and Debian etch. We have some dual-boot clients with Win98 and Linux. In order to get Win98 in a "save" state, we special PCI-cards which control the accesses on the harddiscs from Win98. Re-installing
