I have a similar problem with one of my computers, which has a 4K screen. I use Xfce, but lightdm still produces the login screen, and it is tiny, unreadable. Luckily, all I need do is type in my password and hit enter, so it's not a huge deal, but it would be nice if I could double the size of the minute login window. I haven't tried doing this, but could you boot to a root prompt, log in, then do 'start x' or whatever the current command to engage the GUI is? Oh, and I tried this as a solution to my problem, but as soon as the boot process starts the dmesg-type text scrolling past jumps down to about 4-5 points, again, unreadable. I think the problem is that the initial boot process assumes a VGA display, and if you're using something higher, too bad for you.
