Ubuntu 18.04 loses console during install on ThunderX2 R181-T90

Asked by Frank

During install, the VGA console output stops to work during install of 18.04. We have success if we use the RS232 serial console. So, the installer is functional, just not the console handoff during install.

How do we get the VGA/Keyboard console to work during Ubuntu 18.04 install on ThunderX2 R181-T90 ?

Are you installing the server install (CLI only) or desktop (With full desktop UI)?

With this AARCH64 install of Ubuntu server 18.04 , I have not seen an 'X' installer. Only ncurses like.

This was reproduced again last week on a 2nd system.
