&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Is it possible to detect missing radeon firmware in initrd in early

&gt;<i> Does loading of radeon modesetting kernel driver without firmware break
</I>&gt;<i> the boot completely, or does it just make X.org server fail to start?
</I>
Here it sorts of breaks the boot.
The display is not usable at all, either in the console or in gdm. The
screen is flickering with purple color/green colors on top, and white in
the bigger part of the screen.
