boot: linux askmethod vga=788
language, keyboard, HTTP (or FTP), DHCP/IPv4/IPv6, server, pathname
The server is without the "http://" or "ftp://" prefix.
The pathname depends on the mirror, and probably ends in
"/development/i386/os".
The "vga=788" makes VTn be higher resolution.
Use "vga=791" for still higher.
(Omit "vga=..." for non-multisync monitor; gives 640x480).
I will try this as soon as I am able to boot from the rescue CD.
Somehow, I got myself into the "grub>" prompt only mode. ):
Thanks,
Ernest
