Sure did, to both of you.  Sorry .. it was embarrassingly easy to
find that info in the `info' file.  But your exact files made it real
easy.

It gives examples of setting vga by appending to the root line like:

    kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/hda1 vga=ask

doing this and selectinbg various of those offered I see the selected
size only lasts about 100 or so lines then the standard size
re-emerges so that most of teh boot messages are in the standard size
instead of what ever was selected.

Anyone know what that is the case?
