Title:
  instance hangs at grub prompt after reboot followed by euca-reboot-
  instances

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Invalid
Status in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in The Oneiric Ocelot:
  Fix Released
Status in The Precise Pangolin:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This issue has been reproduced on Diablo and Essex so far.

  When doing "sudo reboot" in an instance shortly followed by "euca-
  reboot-instances {instanceID}", once the instaces comes back up, it is
  no longer accessible interactively. The kernel is still executing
  commands but it stucked in the early boot phases

  If only "sudo reboot" from within the instance or "euca-reboot-
  instances" is used, network connectivity comes back as expected.

  This can be reproduced by using the following steps :

  # On the compute node
  sudo -s
  source creds/novarc
  # start instance
  instanceid=`euca-run-instances -k novaadmin -t m1.tiny ami-00000006 | grep INSTANCE | awk '{print $2}'`
  # wait for instance to start
  sleep 60
  # reboot the instance with reboot command
  ssh -i creds/novaadmin_.key ubuntu@`euca-describe-instances $instanceid | grep INSTANCE | awk '{print $4}'` 'sudo reboot'
  # wait 20 seconds
  sleep 20
  # reboot instance with euca-reboot-instance command
  euca-reboot-instances $instanceid

  Now euca-describe-instances will show the instance as running, but it
  is is unreachable via ssh. The kvm process for the instance is still
  visible and running.
