Of course it would... 
Wish we knew why. Got any log info on that (dmesg?) If you want to mess-around and see if a lower res option doesn't cough, there's res info here.
Looked at config to verify vesa fb stuff is built-in kernel. This really should "just work" and it's about the simplest possible thing a person could try so we're not seeing something pretty fundamental.
Tried the 4.19 kernels yet? I'd probably try that because it's (comparatively) easy.
Also looks like we can turn on udev logging if we rebuild the initrd but...not ready for that.
You didn't mention if you tried the same/previous (no AutoAddDevices False) method and if it did the same thing--I just assumed it did and you didn't mention it because it was the same. Appreciate the new approach and the logs, BTW.
