Please commit this patch and help me retain my sanity =)
This will keep 'Welcome to Linux Mandrake' and 'Press "I" for
interactive startup" from wrapping screen on vesa startup
(vga=788/791/etc). \n would not work so I had to find an appropriate
string to move the cursor back to column 1. I blatantly ripped it off
from /etc/sysconfig/init where it is used to define where [OK] or [FAIL]
will appear during non-Aurora boot.
