Yes, that would help to figure out whether these new crashes are due
to the radeon driver as before or some independent bug.
Even better would be to try booting without loading the radeon module,
by putting
blacklist radeon
in a file /etc/modprobe.d/oa-blacklist-radeon.conf and booting in
"recovery mode" so X does not get started.
