If u can summon any bootloader screen where u can change command line 
parameters (if u 
use UNetbootin than u can create a booatble pen drive and use this as virtual 
machine 
boot CD link : http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ ) than change tha "VGA=" 
parameter as 
following link describes :

resolution/ .Maybe it will help.

i think (maybe i'm not correct) that it wont do much before there are hardware
drivers included, because its working on framebuffer, isn't it?

There doesn't appear to be any vga modes available for widescreen resolutions. 
Does anyone know if it's currently possible to do this, or what would be 
required to add this support?
