Sorry, for leading you on the wrong path. I actually just wanted to help 
getting a 32-bit userspace set up quickly. I haven’t tried reproducing 
the issue in a VM, and used only the ASUS F2A85-M PRO.

Booting the system with `nomodeset`, I didn’t see the error. No idea if 
it’s related to framebuffer handling or specific to AMD graphics device.

Hmm, I thought it’s asking you during install, but I haven’t done it in 
a while.


Kind regards,
