Is there any way to get LILO 0.6 to boot linux0.98.5 into a
VGA-mode other than 60x80 characters on the console?
I tried rdev -v /dev/hda 0 and similar stuff but the VGA-mode
doesn't change.

Is there any way to change the VGA mode later ?
setterm doesn't seem to do it.

(I have LILO on /dev/hda, loading either /Image on /dev/hda4 or
msdos on /dev/hda1; both works fine)
