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.
