I give options seperated by a spacebar entry. Try "ide=nodma nofirewire 
nopcmcia " (w/o quotes)
apci=off should work also when entered on the line and seperated by a space.

Adding the options on the line works by allowing the kernel to take 
action on options that are kernel specific. Options that are no kernel 
specific are ignored. If the installer knos what to do with these 
options, it does so. The options are seperated by a space as far as I 
experienced.
