   Hey Yosemite!   
      
   efibootmgr and x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu grub managed to get 16 boot penguins   
   across the top of a 4k monitor with room to spare.  The secret is the "set   
   gfxmode=3840x2160x32" configuration line in grub.cfg which deploys the   
   kernel's efifb to set the boot resolution.  The default is 800x600x32 which   
   explains why 16 penguins will not fit.  So far I've been only able to get 4k   
   on bootup using grub.   
      
   If someone knows better I am all ears.   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
