Title:
  Ubuntu 18.04.3 OS installation fails over PXE

Status in syslinux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  
  [Steps for Reproducing]
  1. Connect PXE network to Network card
  2. Boot from PXE
  3. Select Ubuntu 18.04.3 in PXE boot menu

  
  Actual result:
  1. Observed a blank screen after OS files has been loaded over PXE,
     We need to pass the specific vga mode (eg.vga=791) as boot parameter to workaround this issue

  Expected result:
  1.  Ubuntu 18.04.3 OS should be installed successfully over PXE without the workaround
