Setting console picture breaks the display when Ubuntu boots into kernel

Setting console picture breaks the display when Ubuntu boots into kernel
So I've been battling an issue for a few days now. The issue is as follows::

Boot into iPXE efi image
Load custom PHP menu with the picture code::

echo "console --x 1024 --y 768 --picture http://192.168.1.45/ipxe/ipxe3.png\n";

The menu loads fine and I see the picture, all looks good.

I then boot an ISO image using the following::

echo "sanboot --no-describe --drive 0x81 http://".$server."/ISO/".$iso." || goto failed\n";
echo "goto start\n";

This loads grub fine, I see everything. Once i choose to Boot into the installer it gives me a display issue

I have spent so much time on this as I thought it was installer / grub / VM video driver issue.

After much trial and error, the issue is being cuased by iPXE and the console code to load the picture. If i remove the picture the installer display loads as normal and I can complete the install.

Can someone please advise on how I could fix this ?

I do want a custom background but when its set its causing display issues once my installer starts for Ubuntu 18. I have tried on various different Hypervisors and Physical machines and they all have the same issues.

Thanks
