[Bug 1520901] [NEW] Wouldn't boot with legacy mode enabled, had to switch to UEFI

[noklam]

Public bug reported:

Description:	Ubuntu Xenial Xerus (development branch)
Release:	16.04


I expected it to boot to legacy mode, instead it threw an error about missing kernel. Fix was to boot in to UEFI.
