What is the name of the installation font?


I really like the font that's displayed during installation but I can't find on the list of setconsolefont. Anyone has an idea of what's its name? It looks a lot like Terminus but it doesn't match completely. Perhaps it's a specific size I haven't yet looked into.

I'm attaching a screenshot.

That looks like ter-116v. Run "setconsolefont" as root, from there you can preview as many console fonts you want to try and find it.

I feel a bit silly for not diving in the installer files to figure it out!

Thank you, both.
