So I went to that url and saw that there was a vga statement in LILO but I assumed it would apply to Grub as well. Went to my menu.lst file and there is a vga statement. It is vga=0x346. I changed that to 0x31a and rebooted. No change in font sizes while booting.
Did you remember to run mkinitrd? Changing the setting actually accomplished nothing, as that is a part of the initrd. mkinitrd will use this setting to change the setting of the resolution for your screen. HTH.
Since when is so? The menu.lst change is visible next time GRUB was reading it. More often problem is that user is changing currently mounted /boot/grub/menu.lst, while real boot runs from another partition. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
