Next time you can try netconsole. Although it has to be loaded before the
radeon module. I guess a way to come around that issue is to build the module
for the network card into the Linux kernel.

Additionally you could have started using a standard driver like vesafb(?) and
then load the radeon module manually after the system booted.

Thanks and good luck with your new system.
