I haven't, but I'm pretty sure there is a way to pass arguments to
modules loaded from initrd.

I do not use Fedora myself, but in Debian/Ubuntu there's /etc/mkinitrd/modu=
les
where you can list modules you want loaded from the initrd, and you can
also specify module arguments.  Perhaps something like

  radeonfb mode_option=3D1024x767-24@60

would work.

I assume that Fedora has some way to specify module options for mkinitrd.
