Comment 4 for bug 1552365

I have found no solution to this problem yet, but a *workaround*

A new computer, Intel NUC6i3SYH, manages to display the text of the installer in UEFI mode, so I could install Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS in UEFI mode. In other words, the signed kernel was installed, and it works with secure boot. The installed system is portable and the text mode works in UEFI mode in my two computers, that do not like the text mode installer.

I used my method to create a portable system, that boots in both UEFI and BIOS mode. It is a minimal system with text mode menus to help creating an Ubuntu flavour including Ubuntu Server. There is also a menu entry to create an ultra-light system with the Fluxbox window manager.

It is convenient to set the font (size) of the text console, to make it fit the screen resolution. See the following link,

"A new compressed image file is uploaded: 'dd_text_16.04-UEFI-n-BIOS-4-pendrive-7.8GB.img.xz'"

I think this system can be quite useful, when you want to make a portable installed system.

Oldfred taught me to use *tasksel* to make it convenient to install all the metapackages that are available from the Ubuntu Server iso file. So I made a new version of the compressed image files of an installed system that works in both UEFI and BIOS mode.

"Two updated compressed image files are uploaded"

Alongside with improvements of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/mkusb (version 10.6.6) it is rather convenient to use this method to install Ubuntu Server into laptops or other computers, where the debian installer does not work in UEFI mode. See also the following link,
