Description

The 8-bit depth is using indexed colors (index pointing to vga palette array entry), and we can have palette array with length 256. Therefore we want to make sure we get the needed palette array loaded and then make adjustments to allow the use of colors 0-255.

Testing done: using 8-bit mode,
