    Just got a machine to boot to UEFI and start an imaging task, but the size of everything is EXTREMELY TINY. Does anyone know how to make it larger? Granted it’s a 4K capable monitor, but still… freaking hard to read. Thanks in advance.

      If it runs, who cares… <jk>

      I know of what you speak. There may be a kernel parameter you can pass to tell it the character size to use. Its probably a vga= line. But that is only off the top of my head. Let me see if I can find the right command.

        as a test for this efi host add this kernel parameter to its host configuration

        vga=792 This should be 1024x768x24

          @george1421 said in UEFI Screen Size:

          vga=792

          That seems to work as expected. I will do some more extensive testing of it this afternoon if possible and report back.
