This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
zesty' to 'verification-done-zesty'. If the problem still exists, change
the tag 'verification-needed-zesty' to 'verification-failed-zesty'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  HiSilicon D05: installer doesn't appear on VGA

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Zesty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The HiSilicon D05 server provides a graphical display that you can view 
remotely using a Java app connected to the BMC. While the system boots there, 
and the GRUB-generated installer menu appears, the installer itself does not 
have a driver to display there.

  Currently this also requires manually adding 'console=tty0' to the
  installer cmdline as, by default, the kernel will use a serial
  console.

  [Test Case]
  Boot installer media. Add "console=tty0" to the cmdline for the "Install 
Ubuntu Server" option, boot.
  Without this fix, the graphical console will remain blank - with it, you'll 
get an installer screen.

  [Regression Risk]
  This adds a driver module that will only load if the associated hardware is 
present.
