Thanks, by following your advice, I managed to get Radeon 3D and
compositing working on my Pegasos II. Very cool! Just for the record,
neither the vgacon or vesafb seemed to work, but the radeon early init
is "good enough" for now.

And actually, by figuring out how to load kernel modules early in
initramfs, I also managed to solve my other earlier question about
loading the serio module directly from vmlinuz.

Again, many thanks!
