Hi,

in loader.conf(5) I have:

screen.font="8x16"

Where I have a font supporting more languages installed as "/boot/8x16.fnt".

On the efi boot:
 this works beautifully and is really cool

On bios boot:
 system boots fine but never loads the specified font (zh-tw song titles show
tofu boxes in ls/everything else in vt(4))
 selecting the font after logging in via vidfont(1) does work.

Tested on FreeBSD-14-RELEASE

Thanks!
