The backlist framework wasn't so bad I think.
Add the missing files and it should work.
However, I know why the firmware cannot be loaded:
The order of scripts in initrd is:
..
03-kms.sh
..
04-udev.sh
..
If nomodeset is set, kms.sh sets "dont_load_modules" - otherwise kms modules
will be loaded automatically.
BUT: The firmware loader needs a running udev.
If I modify the run-all script and insert a "bash" after the udev.sh script, I
can manually load them. It's not possible without the udev daemon.
I'm not sure if it's enough to just start kms.sh after udev.sh because udev
might load the modules automatically (is this the case with this kind of
modules?)
Otherwise kms would have to pre split in two scripts - the first sets options
and always calls dont_load_modules, the seconds (after udev) then explicitely
loads the modules.
