For 20210227 and 20210228 ISOs noticed the remove medium message is
showing correctly.

Later accidentally (embarrassingly) noticed that previously when I
reported message not shown, it was not in fullscreen mode and the
message was blocked from view. If we scroll down the message is at the
botton.

In Ubuntu MATE (probably in Ubuntu also) the remove media message is
about an inch or two below logo and easily covered in the view. In
Xubuntu however, the message is all the way down (footer) of the screen
and can be missed if (like in my case) the vm screen is not set to
fullscreen.

Title:
  Xubuntu hirsute live system, on shutdown no "Please remove the
  installation medium, then press ENTER:" message appeared

Status in casper package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Xubuntu hirsute daily installation QA-test on
  - dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e8300, 8gb, amd/ati radeon rv610/radeon hd2400 pro/xt)

  At completion of install, it suggested I reboot so I was accepted. I
  then got the Xubuntu plymouth screen, and it sat there ...  for >60
  mins

  ** Expected Result

  Xubuntu plymouth close/shutdown screen
  Message "Please remove the installation medium, then press ENTER:"
  I press enter and it reboots

  ** Actual Result

  Xubuntu plymouth close/shutdown screen
  It just sits there... no message (>60 mins for this test)

  On enter it reboots

  ** Extra notes

  See
  http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/419/builds/223307/testcases/1300/results
  for my comments at test

  I don't believe this is new, I believe I saw it during the groovy
  cycle too; however just pressed enter

  I also believe it's related to this box screens. This box has 2x
  1280x1024 displays, however on boot of Ubuntu & Debian *live* systems
  the monitors show as mirror'd, and one display is currently running at
  1024x768; being mirrored I think both run at the lower resolution thus
  I believe the 1024x768 screen is the reason this issue occurs.

  The Xubuntu logo was not central on the display; I think it was out
  b/c of displays both running at 1024x768, and the portion out is I
  suspect appropriate if drawn for 1280x1024.

  I can re-create this  (this box only though, which I believe relates
  to video card and/or screen resolution)
