Which video arguments? The one's suggested on the main page didn't work
for me. I used video=atyfb:vmode:10 rather than video=atyfb:vmode:14.
Also use the text install rather than the graphic install. (Actually, if I
think really hard, I seem to recall I checked "no video" for the actual
install and passed the arguments on the first bootup).
