I had the problem with the consoles too. If you modify your
/boot/grub/menu.lst and modify the defoptions line to remove the
splash item, you will not have the console problem.

## defoptions=quiet splash
# defoptions=quiet

I still haven't been able to get 3D working although I was able to get
the ATI drivers to load correctly. All I see is a black window with
980 fps lines showing up in the background.
