<pre>Problem solved :).
As stated in
<a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AMDGPU#Selecting_the_right_driver">https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AMDGPU#Selecting_the_right_driver</a>
The parameters must be added to the kernel but the parameters depend on
what cart you have installed in the case the card is Southern Islands
**or** Sea Islands.
For Southern Islands parameters are: radeon.si_support=0 amdgpu.si_support=1
For Sea Islands parameters are: radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1
but not both, or you will end with a frozen display during the boot as in
my case.
I hope this help others.
