I saw the same thing the first time I installed and held the power
button to shutdown/reboot.  The second time I installed, I remembered
that the installer usually asks to remove the CD/media and press "Enter"
to continue during shutdown/reboot.  I was installing RC2 on a 901 via a
USB thumb drive and the display goes dark shortly after clicking on the
"Restart" button, so I cannot see if this message is displayed.  I
pressed enter, but did not remove the USB thumb drive I installed from,
and waited.  Sure enough, the system rebooted.

Bug description:
Version: Ubuntu eee 8.0.4.1
System: eeePC 901
User: linux noob

I just decided to reinstall because I had mucked some stuff up and discovered a problem that I had ignored in the first install thinking that it was a one-time quirk.  After the install process, at the very end you get a button that says "Restart", but clicking it does not restart the machine.  It seems to be non-functional, at least on my 901.  I had to hold down the power button to shut down and now I recall I had to do the same thing the first time around.  Did anyone else see this?
