SYSFONT=True is bullshit from whatever bug
i saw this also on machines where it was fixed for sure recently

what means "does not accept any of the usual commands"?

the correct param would be "vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16" or simply try
to remove the font-param at all in grub and after boot was sucessful fix
/etc/default/grub and run "grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg" or
simply fix "/boot/grub2/grub.cfg" also

additionally (for german setups):

[root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ cat /etc/vconsole.conf
FONT=latarcyrheb-sun16
KEYMAP=de-latin1-nodeadkeys

[root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ cat /etc/locale.conf
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
