console font with KMS

hi,
   after upgrade to kernel 2.6.34-2, I have some problems:

- I install: nouveau-dri e xf86-video-nouveau

- I load module: nouveau

- I use driver: "nouveau" in xorg.conf

- I add in rc.conf:
CONSOLEFONT="ter-v14n"
CONSOLEMAP="8859-2"

then rebuild initrd
then reboot.....

but kernel messages , until before kde start,
have microscopic fonts (130x80)

how can I have original fonts (80x25) ?

thank you

p.s.
virtual consolle font are microscopic too (tty) (ctrl-alt-Fn)

Re: console font with KMS

for the fonts large I add a kernel parameter: "video=800x600"
now is ok

second problem after new kernel is this:

in df I view twice /

example:

rootfs                24031156  16146100   6664344  71% /
udev                     10240       148     10092   2% /dev
/dev/disk/by-uuid/6e4056ba-c9c7-4e71-8d8f-c8e55ca21ab8
                      24031156  16146100   6664344  71% /

why?

thanks
