It is *boot*-ing OK, only the *init*-ialization of the userspace service - in your case display/login manager(KDM), doesn't work.
KDM depends on the X server, which in turn depends on functional X video module *and* kernel video module.
You should deal with modules within 'multi-user.target'. i.e. non-graphical user environment and shouldn't touch the configuration of the boot loader, at all.
