Try passing fbcon=map:1 (or video=atyfb:off) to the kernel.

There's a known problem with atyfb cards, upstream is working on it.

Please let us know if this workaround actually solves your problem, so
that we can merge these two bugs as well.
(Just FYI, the other open bugs concerning this issue are #395147,
#403364  and #405285).

Thanks.
ciao,
