When I boot up I see the 12x22 fonts for a while then it switches to
the tiny fonts default font about half way throught the boot process.

My goal is to have the system running with the 12x22 fonts.  I do not
plan to run X.  Does anyone know how why it swtiches away from my
custom fonts ?

running:
3.17.0-rc-5+ on a MacBookPro with EFI and booting the kernel
with the efi-stub from gummiboot.

built with:
Support for frame buffer devices
EFI-based Framebuffer
Support Framebuffer Console support

Select compiled-in fonts
        Sparc console 12x22 font
