I had the same problem.
'ati' is not listed, so I used the default/vga. When I finished the
install, startx failed.
I did some rearch at www.XFree86.org and found that I needed to enter
'ati' for that parameter (I think on that screen, the driver defaulted
to 'ati' and it was asking for a chipset??) so both driver and chipset
needs to be 'ati' -- if you enter 'mach64', you loose some
functionality. Note: as you mention, nether 'ati' or 'mach64' are
options.
Because I didn't do it during install, I can't tell you 100% that you
should enter 'ati' during the install, but you can get more info at
www.XFree86.org, or edit the XFConfig86 file after the install like I
did.
Using 'ati' might also help with modeline, I'm not sure. Modeline
worked ok for me.
