[Bug 447765] Re: Can't switch to console mode when booting from grub2

gfxmode/gfxpayload in grub2 doesn't really work properly with the kernel
yet. vga= works but only if you use linux16/initrd16 rather than the
linux/initrd commands.

However, when you installed grub1 instead, did you have to use vga= as
suggested in a previous comment? If so, then to be honest this still
feels like a kernel bug for not working out of the box.
