After installing your kernel, one needs to enable the font in console-setup too:

$ cat /etc/default/console-setup | grep '^FONT'
FONTFACE="TER"
FONTSIZE="16x32"

Then i did update-initramfs, and rebooted, and omg how nice my tty is now!

If you can, please cherrypick this patch into all the GA kernels as far back as possible, if it like applies cleanly without too much trouble.

Later, we will need to work on enabling console-setup (or maybe kernel?!) to autodetect and autopick TER 16x32.
