Regarding the reported bug, and the exact wording:
"Installation process seems to complete successfully. When rebooting, the 
process hangs after ejecting the CDROM. Here is the last line output to the 
console:

mount: Function not implemented
Please remove the disc, close the tray (if any) and press ENTER:

At that point, pressing on the ENTER key doesn't do anything and a hard
reset is necessary. After the reset, Ubuntu seems to boot fine with the
newly installed system.

By the way, this bug is also reproducible by simply loading the live CD
and rebooting without installing. The process hangs after ejecting the
CDROM."


My experiences:
In the first instance (install, then reboot), when I did it, the system shut 
down to the point where the installation had completed successfully and the 
system had finished closing all the processes being run from the LiveCD and 
ejected the CD and issued the last message on the screen for me to remove the 
CD and press Enter.  I'd remove the CD and press enter and the PC preceded to 
finish rebooting back up exactly as I expected it to.  My keyboard DID respond 
to the Enter key after the CD had ejected. 

While attempting to reproduce the problem by loading (i.e - booting
from) the live CD (not the hard drive) and rebooting without installing,
here's what happened:       I clicked the red STOP button and then
selected Restart from the offered choices.  The system shut down to the
last bit of progress bar, ejected the Live CD (from which I had booted),
and issued the message:

"Please remove the disc, close the tray (if any) and press ENTER to
continue."

I removed the CD, closed the tray, and (maybe this is critical?) waited
until the CD drive light quit blinking and went out, then I pressed
ENTER and the PC went on to finish rebooting (this time from the hard
drive.)  Again, I had no problems with this.

My hard drive has Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon 7.10 installed with all updates
current up to March 2008 (although I never booted from it for these
tests), and the Live CD I booted from was the original normal release of
7.10 that came out last October 2007 (18th?19th?) - NOT  a pre-release.

Hope this helps.   Sorry about the other email.  I'll try to keep
answers strictly relevant next time

p.s. I also had no problems when I tried to reproduce the problem using an Edgy 
6.10 Live CD.
By the way, I have a PS2 style keyboard.  Could the people with the problem 
maybe have been using USB connected keyboards?
Also, I only tested this with my desktop PC, not my laptop.

John C Lord : Thanks for your fast answer, but you spoke about another
problem (yes the Hard Drive problem is really a BIOS/Motherboard problem
:)). Concerning this bug report which is about the keyboard that is not
working to eject the LiveCD once the system is installed, can you
confirm if it still happens to you when you you exit the ubuntu LiveCD ?
