/etc/rc.conf: CONSOLEFONT=

Hi, back when I was to install Arch I could issue a 'km' to configure keyboard layout and console font.

Now that I have system up and running, how do I check the list of console fonts installed and how do I configure /etc/rc.conf to use it?

Look in /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts.

There is a comment in /etc/rc.conf that provides that information.

# CONSOLEFONT: found in /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts (only needed for non-US)

Am I blind or what? Shame on me.

I hope this one will be valid:

do you know how to preview each one?
