Well the uvesafb in the installer image worked for crodges, I suppose,
so in the AMDGPU case there is no need for another boot option in the
installer image.

I’m not sure what to do about the installed system.  There are
multiple choices and all are bad.  Currently by default after install
you get a broken system unless nomodeset is added.  The other libre
options are not to use most of the expensive and powerful GPU.

Florian
