You have to set a vga=xxx string in lilo.conf.
Lets' asuume you have a lilo.conf like this:
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
default="linux"
....
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="linux"
root=/dev/hda1
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=mount hdc=ide-scsi acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda5"
read-only
vga=7xx
^^^
this is your vga mode
You have to set it to vga=791 in order to have a 1024x768 color console. You
can set this vga=791 string per kernel image, or for all kernel images - then
include this line at the top of lilo.conf:
boot=/dev/hda
vga=791
...
Then just say "lilo" as root and reboot to see your new beautiful console :-P
Read the "Framebuffer-HOWTO" if you want another (non-1024x768 or with
16/256/etc colors) vga mode.
Good luck!
