We can do an ioctl to the console and see how many lines and columns we have. Reusing boot_params could be nice but if we have the information available in other ways digging it out that way is quite possibly better.
Another path: LiuxBIOS+elfboot+payload, and payload is compressed elf (vmlinux+initrd) via lzma. and use kexec to boot final production kernel. We don't need to use boot_params from the first tiny kernel.
