>Description:
I am curious about how to use the videocontrol modes during the kernel debug and complete initialization of the FreeBSD operating system. Currently I use the allscreens_flags in rc.conf that only applies the setting at the end of the boot process. I was wondering if there is a option in LINT or a device.hints option that can make this feature possible. I highly recommend this feature. I think the FreeBSD system would be more attractive with the higher video modes during the entire boot process.

This is really more of a general question than a bug report.  You'll have 
better success asking questions like this on freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org
