Bizarre. took out my old radeon r9 280 card and put the RX480 amdgpu |

back in and rebooted to a kernel which I had configured for amdgpu |

and booted with no issues, not needing modeset and xorg working fine |
22 |

Never seen anything like this before. Bring back the days when you had |

a primary and secondary hard drives on a serial bus. Far easier when |
26 |
you have to configure your own IRQs. |
