Public bug reported: There is a bug inside the 3.16 kernel shipping with Ubuntu 14.10 which causes my Radeon HD 6850 machine to be unable to boot unless radeon.dpm=0 is passed to the kernel command line. This can't be done with the ISO so the only way to install Ubuntu 14.10 on these machines are to use the network install option. Linux 3.17 is also affected by the same bug.
