I believe you can just add 'vga=F00' (those are zeros) to your kernel lines and it'll use 80x25 for the non-X VGA console.

Not work: if I put vga=F00 into kernel line (at the initial kernel list, press 'E' then edit the "linux16 /vmlinuz-3.10..." line), when I press Ctrl-X I get the error "error: unrecognized number"
Some other suggest?
Thanks

Oppss ... This is a my error, do not put the vga=F00 at the end of line ... now I have put it to the end of line and the error "unrecognized number" has disappeared and the server boot.
But the problem still exist: the resolution is too high, like without vga=F00
Some other suggest?
Thanks

Oops, that works in EL6 but not in EL7. Try 'nomodeset'.

Ok, Jonathan 'nomodeset' work.
Then I have:
a) vi /etc/default/grub # remove 'rhgb quiet', add 'nomodeset' b) grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg c) reboot
Thanks

I have put "nomodeset" at the end of the kernel boot options and now the console is like I'm looking for: 80x24.
Is this a valid solution for a not GUI server console?
Thanks
Many Thanks
