I want to run GRUB in console mode instead of graphical mode on a 4K screen. That is, have the following in /etc/default/grub:

GRUB_TERMINAL=console

When I do this, the font is extremely small. GRUB_GFXMODE does not change the resolution because I am in console mode, not graphical mode.

What is the right way to change the font and/or resolution so that the text is readable?

Did you try loading larger font? https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/31672/can-grub-font-size-be-customised? – davidt930 Oct 10 '23 at 02:30
