Hi! I heared that I can set VESA modes using VBE Patched GRUB. I even heared that there is 0.94 or 0.97 Patched GRUB. But Has got somebody Windows Image(e.g. to open it in WinImage) of this? I searched in Google - there is a lot of stuff, but or only sources, or only Linux stuff. And how can I set the VESA mode? (e.g. in menu.cfg?) Or there is another way?

Thanks for any help.

Actually GRUB documentation tells you how to do this (check multiboot standard, the kernel image itself can tell whether it wants a graphics mode) but I believe the patched GRUB also had a command. Somebody with experience gotta tell you though, 'cos I never found a working patched GRUB version.
