Just installed the Oct 3rd snapshot on my desktop. During the boot
process it loses console output and just shows a blank screen. The

the machine froze, but it continued running and I was able to SSH into
the machine. Here is the DMESG. Looks like some issues with DRM. At a
bit of a loss on the next troubleshooting steps, any ideas?
Exact same issue here... drm effect.
boot -c
disable radeondrm
then install the firmware manually (firmware-update will not see it
unfortunately). Then reboot.
If your machine has network, jsg would probably be happy to see what's
going on in /var/log/messages while the machine loses boot...
Thanks -- installing the firmware package resolved the issue. I just
assumed that the firmware updater would grab it if needed.
