================================================

Hi,

I'm running 2.0.5R.
How can I change the settings of the console screen ?

I would like to have 50 lines on my screen, but if I change
the related parameters in sysconfig I can apply the changes
only to the first virtual console, and at the moment the
screen buffer size changes, all the boot messages are lost.

Is it possible to change some settings so all the virtual consoles
are 50 lines high immediately, starting from the hw probing?
Or at least how can I set all the virtual consoles at once from
sysconfig.

Thanks for help
