Just so everybody knows/sees that no FB support is required to whiptail, so whiptail menus can be used over serial/ssh/bmc remote access.

@tlaurion KGPE-D16's internal GPU is now supported as of linuxboot/heads#957 however it's stuck at 640x480 and the GUI looks terrible. It should be okay for CLI though.

Might need some tweaks, will look into that. Was basically to not forget :)
