Does anyone know how to do set the VGA mode from userland so kexec will start in a known state?
By 'userland' do you mean as a user process after boot has completed?? Sort of like in /etc/init.d/boot.local you mean? (assuming it you don't want to do it via a one-time systemd init.)
No. Kexex is used on a running system. The idea is to set the the vga mode, then run kexec, which starts in the wanted mode. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
