Thanks, 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller also appears for a MacBookPro8,3 and according to EveryMac.com, all four models include Intel HD Graphics 3000.
Of the six models at https://everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords=MacBookPro8,2, which one matches yours?

Try:

- key Return (to boot in single user mode)
- Return (for /bin/sh)
- kldload radeonkms
- Return
- exit (type the word)

@grahamperrin
Thanks again for your guidance.
When I try to boot in single user mode in step when I should enter pathname of shell weather i stick with /rescue/sh or type /bin/sh i get the following
cannot read termcap database;
using dumb terminal settings.
After that I tried to use kldload radeonkms but i get:
kldload: can't load radeonkms: No such file or directory
I stumbled upon https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_ ... ?id=247112

Single user mode
Sorry, my mistake. (I thought I tested the steps with an ISO, in retrospect it seems that I tested the steps with an installation.)
