I haven't tried to boot up without the radeon but I tried various combinations of nvdi/fvdi/etc and nothing really works.  What happens is without memory protection it boots and gets to the login prompt or shortly before and either freezes or outputs a bus error or something like that.  With memory protection on it will fail at or before the login prompt (randomly) and give a memory violation.  The errors really look like flakey hardware but restore any 1.17.x series kernel and it works perfectly fine, rock solid, with or without memory protection.

Works fine here Mark.

I'm sure we'd have heard of more issues from others if it was that unstable.
