Nope!  Every time, I start with a 1024x768 screen using the "small" Mac font.
I do the same thing:
	boot hd:2,\ofwboot.xcf
and I get the sun console font, except sometimes it stays in the original
font.

BTW, on a marginally-related note, how do I make ofwboot.xcf delay for a
few seconds before loading a kernel, if, say, I might have a kernel that
won't work very well, and want to boot my old one?
