GRUB2 (the GRand Unified Bootloader) is a multiboot boot loader. If you want to set the size of gfxterm font, then specify FONT_SIZE=size in the build options. The default size is 19. If you want to install grub2 on GPT, you need to put a BIOS boot partition on GPT. To install it in the MBR replacing lilo, generate a config file in /boot/grub and launch grub-install, e.g. mkdir /boot/grub grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg grub-install /dev/sda
