Syslinux - Aug 2010 - White Foreground after vesa exit

Hi,

 

we would like to know if it's possible to change the foreground color after
the exit of the graphic mode.

At this moment, after selecting the boot option it exits the graphic window
and starts loading the kernel in textmode (required). However the textmode
foreground color is currently "white".

 

is there any way to set this to black instead? 

 

Best regards and thanks for any help!

No, but you can suppress the switch to text mode entirely by passing
"quiet" to the kernel.  Furthermore with "vga=current" you
can actually
continue in graphics mode until the kernel graphics driver takes over.
