Bug description:
  Binary package hint: debian-installer

  I am not sure which package is the affected one, but since it affects
  the install of the server, I am opening against d-i. I started
  experiencing this last week at around Dec 23/24th.

  Repeated with ISOs from Dec 24th to Dec 27th.

  I experienced it under both a bare-metal install and a libvirt install
  (under Natty), both under preseeded and manual installs.

  Installation proceeds nicely until we get to the point of installing
  the base system. Then, suddenly, I see a "rebooting" message flash on
  the screen, and system does indeed reboot. Since there is no kernel
  installed, at this point, the system hangs.

  I am marking this as critical -- no tests can be performed.

  I am unsure on how to collect data here, since the installer logs are
  lost.

  LAST ISO TESTED: 20101230. reboot happens on 'extracting libpcreg...'
