[Bug 1646277] Re: Xenial server 16.04.x will have a black screen after PXE installation

[Joseph Salisbury]

It sounds like the best approach is to bisect through the Ubuntu Xenial
kernels.  We need to identify the last kernel version that did not have
the bug and the first that did.  Can you test the following early Xenial
kernel:

https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-
team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/9583414

Note, with this test kernel you need to install both the linux-image and
linux-image-extra .deb packages.
