Bug#432797: system does not reboot automatically after fresh installation



Package: debian-installer
Version: Taken from unstable

svn co svn://svn.debian.org/svn/d-i/trunk
debian-installer


I did a gui installation from the latest build cd.I
took the debian-installer from svn unstable.

The whole installation went well and the cd came out
and at the finish of installation the system did not
reboot by itself.It stoped at a white screen.I could
not wait anymore and restarted manually and everything
was fine.I got the grub and was able to boot into my
new os.


Next time I did the same in text mode and had no
issues the system rebooted by itself and I landed in
my new os.


When I repeated the gui mode of installation to check
something at the finish of installation.as soon as the
white screen appeared i restarted the pc manually.And
saw that grub did not get loaded properly

It stopped at 

grub>

then I entered into the new os by giving the partition
and kernel name and initrd.

second time when I rebooted showed no problem and the
grub was loaded automatically I dont know how this
time grub got loaded.


What could be the reason of getting the white screen
and how can I make it to reboot in gui mode.
