/sbin/setsysfont which is called by /etc/rc.sysinit sets the specified font
and acm parameters on current terminal only, which is usually tty1. It is
advisable to alter the script so that it would change the font on all ttys
that might be used. Commonly those are tty1-tty6 (alt-F1-F6).
It is very important for locales, since many international users use font
display maps, such as koi2alt for example.
I have put the following code into the /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
ltty=$(/usr/bin/tty)
source /etc/sysconfig/i18n
for i in /dev/tty[1-6]; do
[ "$ltty" = "$i" ] && continue
/bin/setfont $SYSFONT -m $SYSFONTACM -C $i
echo -ne "\E(K" 2>/dev/null >$i
done
