Just console mode.  Only the basic stuffs are installed that gets it
booting and not much programs.  The fonts fits into around an 80x25
screen matrix but the systems seems to churn out the page size of
around 80x30 characters.


set your boot loader's framebuffer to vga="xxx"

where xxx is the video mode.
ex.
        0x311 = 640x480
        0x314 = 600x800
