Apparently, now days system boot chain is tempted to display fancy things on the console. While enjoyable, in non-text mode libvirt guest console can't make it to the log file. This change tries to ensure pure text mode kernel console in PXE and Redfish booting by disabling any graphics in the VM and in guest kernel. Note that it's not only kernel that can control display mode, but EFI boot loader as well. For getting on VM's text console in devstack one could use `virsh console --devname serial1 node-0` or just add `<graphics>` section to `virsh edit node-0` XML.

Overview
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
