This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.2.26

---------------
ubiquity (2.2.26) lucid-proposed; urgency=low

  * Stop ubiquity and oem-config when stopping display managers.  This
    should guarantee that X has exited by the time we try to start plymouth
    on shutdown (LP: #628630).
  * Add --config=Mode:0644 to debconf-copydb call, as otherwise we leave
    /var/cache/debconf/config.dat mode 0600 in the installed system,
    breaking the first run of some package management frontends
    (LP: #442941).
  * Automatic update of included source packages: grub-installer
    1.49ubuntu11.1, netcfg 1.51ubuntu3, partman-base 139ubuntu7.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: casper

  When a user chooses "Install Ubuntu" from a CD/DVD install (not the live session):
  http://people.canonical.com/~jerone/demonstration/casper_cd_issue/IMG_1105.JPG

  They install there system and at the end where the system is to reboot or tell the user to "press enter" to reboot. It appears the system is hung. I posted a video of the issue here:
  http://people.canonical.com/~jerone/demonstration/casper_cd_issue/IMG_1104.MOV

  This only happens when you choose "Install Ubuntu" from the live media
  screen. If you choose "Try Ubuntu without Installing" on reboot it
  brings up a nice pruple screen telling you to press enter to reboot.

  This happens with both 10.04 & 10.10 builds with machines that have an
  internal DVD drive or a USB DVD drive.

  This is effecting OEMs who have recovery CD/DVD media for Ubuntu
  10.04.

  Given that the user is already prompted to reboot, it should just
  eject the CD and reboot the system or print text to tell the user to
  press enter.
