Mmm, actually this should already be fixed, in the context of
#910227. In the latest images we just keep the grub resolution, which in my tests is fine. That's lazy of course, but that's more long-term-prone than tryine a 16x32 font, which sooner or later will again be too small.


I just tested with the daily at:
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso

its README says:
Debian GNU/Linux testing "Bullseye" - Official Snapshot amd64 NETINST
                              20200726-21:15

The font size for the installer itself remained tiny, same size as grub. But the other VTs where "correctly" sized (let's call 16x32 "correct" for my screen).


The GRUB prompt indeed took over the efifb resolution, but because it was using the default font, it was really tiny text.
