LOL, I've tried to actually connect my monitor to the atyfb and that was
really helpful. :-)
So, using the creatorFB I see Openboot and the silo prompt; after that,
the control goes to the atyfb card (which without a monitor can do
little).
Conversely, using the atyfb card there's no openboot (and no X, given
that I've configured it only for the creator) but the console shows up
just fine. :-)
ciao,
