Public bug reported:

Hardware: DELL Inspiron 1100 Laptop,

uname -a: Linux cygnet 2.6.17-11-generic #2 SMP Thu Feb 1 19:52:28 UTC 2007 
i686 GNU/Linux
However, the above is from the now patched system.  The error occurred during 
installation of Edgy Eft 6.10  from a CD created with the ISO file from the 
Ubuntu site.

The problem was repeated 3 times and occurred at the end of an otherwise
smooth install.  The system was installed on the full HDD, ie no windows
partition was left.  At the end of the install the options to "reboot
now" or "reboot later" appeared and "reboot now" selected, this resulted
in a partial reboot which then locked up the system requiring power off
and reinstall (system unusable).  The problem was resolved by selecting
"reboot later", waiting for the subsequent HDD & CD activity to finish,
then rebooting (resulted in successful install).

** Affects: Ubuntu
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
