Hmm, so it does!!! I'm sure I remember trying to pass vga=xxx to the kernel command line while booting and it failing. Maybe I was messing something up. Unfortunately, vga=xxx seems to be incompatible with setting FONT=... in /etc/sysconfig/console ! The console spungs back into the default VGA mode during the SysV scripts. And if I *don't* set FONT then I get a font where the pound sign has morphed into an accented 'u'. Is my hybrid system (LFS 6.1.1 + kernel 2.6.24 + console bootscript from LFS 6.3 + vga=1) incapable of getting this right?
