if it's okay to be at the bottom instead:
echo -e "\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n" > /etc/issue
i do this on all of my systems for security reasons. it's more elegant
than the other proposed methods.
additionally, i think running
/usr/bin/clear > /etc/issue
on the console may work as well.
