In all likelyhood this is the problem.  The driver for you card has not
been compiled in 64-bit mode and will not operate under a 64-bit kernel.
If you can use this system with a 32-bit kernel then I recommend you try
that and possibly rerun the installation.

You only need an FCode entry if you want to be able to use it from the
OBP (such as booting over the network).
