Little extra line at bottom of screen

I'm currently running standard vgacon on my Cirrus Logic GD 5430 (rev 71)
video card with 2MB of RAM under 2.1.125. In mode 8 (132x43), I get 3/4 of
a line at the bottom of the screen that is a section of the scrollback
buffer. I'm not using vesafb (card doesn't support VESA 2.0 it seems).
Booted with 'vga=8' as the only parameter. I can't select the line with gpm
either.

Currently the line reads: "BOOT_IMAGE=2.1.125 ro root=301", which is what I
had on the previous console I was on from a "cat /proc/cmdline". Switching
away, typing "dmesg" and switching back to this mail makes it say "Process
rm (pid: 1229, process nr: 63, stackpage=c40a500)" from the oops I had
earlier with "rm -rf /proc". Only cosmetic it appears...
