vga=791 should *replace* vga=ask in /etc/lilo.conf, not be an answer
to the question (vga=ask)ed. Afterwards, run lilo (-v to see what it is
doing).

And if you want even more room in your console (and have good eyes
;-), run

 $ consolechars -f /usr/share/consolefonts/lat1-10.psf

(10,12,14,16 available)

If you want to add it on shell startup, try

  if [  $TERM == "linux" ]
  then consolechars -f /usr/share/consolefonts/lat1-10.psf
  fi

in .bash(rc,_profile)

Hope that helps,
