This bug was specifically about the Ubuntu Desktop Installer, and the
experience one has with it.

Are you experiencing something similar, on the installed system, after
the installation is done and you use Ubuntu normally? In that case
that's a separate issue. Please open a new bug.

If people experience shutdown issues of the live image, please clearly
state which image serial is used and what the symptoms are and how to
reproduce it.
