Unfortunately the only monitor I have access to now does'nt work with the screen mode that I have configured. I don't have much access to anything over here, so what I'd need to do is interrupting the boot process so I can edit the config files from the text mode console.
I think there should be some key combination to do this, but I can't find it. Anyone who knows?
What do you want to do exactly?
Make Debian stop before it boots X?
Make Debian boot a different fbconsole mode that you can use?
Probably what you could do is simply do;
boot hd:0 debiankernel radeonfb:800x600-32@60 single
That will give you a really low resolution console and drop you into single user mode. You can edit any text files you need on the root filesystem from there (after mounting it..) and get the settings you need.
