Bug Description

this might be unfixable but filing it regardless...

when booting on a serial console on a non 80x24 window, the serial console stays full of cruft when console-conf starts. instead the window should be completelly cleared even if the console-conf window only runs in the top left corner in 80x24 mode once it comes up.

Is this so important once https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/subiquity/+bug/1621142 is fixed?

well, it looks quite awful ... functionally bug 1621142 would be enough indeed (if you can find the message in the chaos on screen)
