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

[Joseph Salisbury]

I started a kernel bisect between v3.7 final and v3.8-rc1. The kernel
bisect will require testing of about 7-10 test kernels.

I built the first test kernel, up to the following commit:
106c1ee52e54ee2a695dddfc86b4aed32f65894b

The test kernel can be downloaded from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1646277

Can you test that kernel and report back if it has the bug or not?  I
will build the next test kernel based on your test results.

Thanks in advance
