I need to increase the resolution of the boot screen to see what is going on there. The docs say, that with the command "vbeinfo" from the grub console I can see the valid modes of my grpahics card. Now...the current resolution of the grub console compbined with the unfortunate sorting of the output of vbeinfo I am currently only able to read the last entries of this realy long list. Therefore...I need the whole output of vbeinfo to set the console resulotion that way, so I will be able to read the output of vbeinfo.... deadlock? Nice things like 'less' or such are not available.... What can I do? Thank you very much in advance for any help! Best regards, mcc
