Thanks for the link, but it doesn't address my current problem. I setting the VGA mode OK at boot time, but the console bootscript resets it if I set FONT=... in /etc/sysconfig/console ! If I don't set FONT=... then I get the VGA mode, but not the font I want. Hmm, all docs seem to assume you're looking for a VESA mode rather than one of the VGA modes from the grub menu. Maybe the console bootscript handles VESA modes better?
