Title:
  zipl-installer: set up re-IPL to boot newly installed Ubuntu/Linux

Status in zipl-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in zipl-installer package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When an Ubuntu 16.04 system is installed (20101020ubuntu415), the
  system finally shuts down, but does not re-IPL from the target device.

  To set up the re-IPL settings, a call to chreipl is required from
  within the installed system.  This is required beccause chreipl uses a
  helper script to detect the IPL device for linear mapped devices, for
  example, LVM or multipath devices.

  Note that there is also a change required for the rootskel package to
  reset the debian-installer/exit/always_halt to false.

  Please pick up the patches provided in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
  bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=813506 which fix this problem.
