Hi, I am running 5.4-STABLE and I would like to have better resolution
(more lines and columns) when I boot into console.  I used to be able
to issue a command once there but I have forgotten that command.  I
remember trying to allude to it via rc.conf or a startup file
(rc.local?) but it did not work.  It seems to me that I needed the
following in my rc.conf as a pre-requisite:

font8x8="iso-8x8.fnt"
font8x14="iso-8x14.fnt"
font8x16="iso-8x16.fnt"

So does anyone know how I can automatically get smaller fonts in my
console?

Thanks,

Peter

Hi Peter,

You need to recompile your kernel with below
options         VESA

You need to include these in your rc.conf
allscreens_flags="132x25"

This is what i did for my FreeBSD box.
