I can confirm this issue with the following configuration:

ISO: ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64 (mounted as emulated drive / console 
redirection)
MB: Supermicro X10DRi
CPU: 2x Intel E5-2620v4
RAM: 128 GB

In BIOS/Legacy mode I get the same error:

Loading /install/mt86plus... ok
Booting kernel failed: Invalid argument

In UEFI mode memtest is not listed in the boot options.

Ubuntu itself starts without issues on the same hardware.
The iso file is not corrupt. Memtest runs fine from the same iso file in an VM.

Sidenote: The Windows memory test seems to have issues on this plattform too in 
BIOS mode:
It was finished as fast as if it would only check a small part of the RAM 
compared to the same test in UEFI mode. Maybe something is wrong with PAE and 
they check only 4GB...
