/etc/vconsole.conf must be installed always, even in generic initrds, not only host-only ones. systemd-vconsole-setup is run at initrd stage and expects either /etc/vconsole.conf or kernel cmdline options to exist. I have also proposed a change in systemd-vconsole-setup that makes it behave better if /etc/vconsole.conf does not exist: systemd/systemd#15479 But it is just a fallback. If /etc/vconsole.conf does not exist in initrd and if that patch is applied on systemd, then the default consoel font is set despite the one being set in /etc/vconsole.conf and this setting is inherited when new TTYs are opened. This leads to full ignorance of settings in /etc/vconsole.conf. It is incorrect, and that is why this file must be copied to initrds always, but not only on host-only initrds.
