[CentOS] Console screen changed on updating from CentOS 6.7 to CentOS 6.8?
Hello, I have several CentOS 6 VMs, I have updated the first one successfully, but there is one thing I miss or I don't like; How do I get the standard console with 80x25 back? Hello, this is /boot/grub/grub.conf default=0 timeout=5 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title CentOS (2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64 ro root=UUID=a27dc9a0-ea3a-497d-a9c3-80c7bbba31fa rd_NO_LUKS LANG=en_US.UTF-8 rd_NO_MD SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 crashkernel=auto rd_NO_DM rd_NO_LVM KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=de config_NO_HZ vga=0x0300 initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64.img I've added 'vga=0x0300', but this results in 100x37? Thanks for Help, Walter

Is it just because they?re VMs and you?re running them on a GUI hosted by some other OS, and you don?t want them taking a lot of screen space? Personally, I?m glad Red Hat finally acknowledged that workstations and servers haven?t been using 14" CRTs for quite a long time now.> I've added 'vga=0x0300', but this results in 100x37?Try adding nomodeset instread.
