Coming from LILO to GRUB, I don't know where to change the screen resolution
in GRUB. Can someone point me in the right direction? I didn't find anything
in grub.conf.

Append "vga=789" to the kernel parameters in grub. This will give you 800x600. The table below lists all modes. The values are in hex and have to be converted to decimal and added to the kernel parameters.
eg. 800x600 is 0x315 which in decimal would equate to 789.


    | 640x480  800x600  1024x768 1280x1024
----+-------------------------------------
256 |  0x301    0x303    0x305    0x307
32k |  0x310    0x313    0x316    0x319
64k |  0x311    0x314    0x317    0x31A
16M |  0x312    0x315    0x318    0x31B
