On Archlinux, how to get bigger fonts in the console? (i.e. the text before we boot to Wayland).

Run the following commands as root:

# setfont /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts/ter-132b.psf.gz

To make it permanent:

1. Install terminus-font package

# pacman -S terminus-font

2. Add a line to /etc/vconsole.conf

# echo 'FONT=ter-i28b' | tee -a /etc/vconsole.conf

3. Rebuild init ramdisk:

# mkinitcpio -P

4. Reboot and be amazed ;-)
