No, memory access to frame buffer will only work after the SD-RAM
controller of the GPU is properly initialized. Video BIOS is supposed
to do this among other things. As the boot log showed, video memory
size was not recognized by the radeon driver which indicates that
the video BIOS run failed to initialize the graphic chip and memory
controller. Fixing the XLB Initiator Window configuration for bus
PCI IO space starting at 0x00000000 seemed to solve problems with
video BIOS run.
