Hmm, interesting. These arguments are passed from the yaboot.conf
which has a line as follows:

append="video=radeonfb:off video=offb:off radeon.modeset=1 radeon.agpmode=-1"

I thought this would append these arguments to the default kernel
command line argument in the config. Apparently it is not. So, the
resolution for this is to add the console argument to yaboot.conf I
guess, right?
