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

[Joseph Salisbury]

It is good news that 4.4.40 does not exhibit this bug.  That might
indicate the fix for the bug has already made it to upstream stable.

The current Ubuntu kernel in -proposed has up to the 4.4.35 updates.
Can you give that kernel a test to see if the fix was applied to that
version?  It can be downloaded from:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4.35/
