:IIRC every userconf command should be in their separate line.
:Can you please try to split the userconf= line in two userconf= lines in
:boot.cfg, i.e.:
:
: userconf=disable nouveau
: userconf=disable nouveaufb

my /boot.cfg has it all on one line:
menu=Boot normally:userconf disable radeon;userconf disable
nouveau*;rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;boot
