For a higher resolution, you can add something like vga=<something> to the kernel parameters in grub.conf/lilo.conf; vga=773 seemed to work reasonably well last time I tried. For utf-8 fonts and various other X11-style options, I suggest installing the console-setup and console-terminus packages. -- Benjamin M.
