I want to ask one question about a custom resolution in the console.
I have a Sony Vaio Laptop VGN-SZ2VP/X, the screen resolution is
1280x800, now I'm using the vga=773 which is an 1024x768 but this is
ugly as I get a border of about 2-3cm on one the sides of the screen.
So is there a way that I set the 1280x800 resolution at boot time ?

Use vga=866 to set 1280x800 in boot time.
In Documentation/fb/vesafb.txt is commented only 1280x1024, but in same man page is commented that you can read /Documentation/svga.txt and in this document you can find this:

** Short intro for the impatient: Just use vga=ask for the first time,
** enter `scan' on the video mode prompt, pick the mode you want to use,
** remember its mode ID (the four-digit hexadecimal number) and then
** set the vga parameter to this number (converted to decimal first).
