Comment:

 I was wrong in my last comment, on XO-1 and XO-1.75 the font is set from
 olpc.fth for insecure boot, and from inside OFW for secure boot.

 For XO-1.75 I've moved this to the builtin-kernel command line; I think
 its more sensible to put it there (one less Linux-ism at OFW level) and I
 suspect the reasons we don't do this are historical.

 also compiled in the font. olpc-kernel 289af0e4f6b1e
