cannont change the fontconsole

i follow the gentoo openrc with console font [1]

the coide that on /etc/conf.d/consolefont is
Code: [Select]

# The consolefont service is not activated by default. If you need to
# use it, you should run "rc-update add consolefont boot" as root.
#
# consolefont specifies the default font that you'd like Linux to use on the
# console.  You can find a good selection of fonts in /usr/share/consolefonts;
# you shouldn't specify the trailing ".psf.gz", just the font name below.
# To use the default console font, comment out the CONSOLEFONT setting below.
consolefont="ter-v32n"

# consoletranslation is the charset map file to use.  Leave commented to use
# the default one.  Have a look in /usr/share/consoletrans for a selection of
# map files you can use.
#consoletranslation="8859-1_to_uni"

# unicodemap is the unicode map file to use. Leave commented to use the
# default one. Have a look in /usr/share/unimaps for a selection of map files
# you can use.
#unicodemap="iso01"

my problem is that one
when I reboot [2]  my system  doesnt show the desired font and always remap to
default one aka   lat9w-16

when I reboot my system sometimes it works fine and sometimes not working at all

that is my problem always is there any way to fix it ?  I am using shell scripts to reboot my system 
and I do not use desktop enviroment or login manager .

the only way to work porperly is when  delelete the service on consolefont on openrc and reenable it
