+ This hook loads consolefont specified in mkinitcpio.conf
+ during early userspace.
+ You should add CONSOLEFONT="font" (same syntax as in rc.conf) to your
+ mkinitcpio.conf. You may also remove the CONSOLEFONT from rc.conf
+ to prevent the font from being set twice and speed up your boot proccess.
