Same BIG problems here. DVD default installation is de facto BROKEN.
Please don't use radeon fb driver.
There were bugs on it on our bugzilla.
Which ones? On my hardware, missing the firmware does NOT disable free radeon
driver : it only disables acceleration. I use this as a feature daily on a
laptop which video memory is partly corrupted, so I am really sure that at
least on pre 2xxx hardware it works (x300/x600/x700/x1300).

I can confirm that with non-free packages the boot works, without it
Mageia isn't bootable (with the radeon framebuffer) at all.
