Bug Description

When an Ubuntu 16.04 system is installed (20101020ubuntu415), the system finally shuts down, but does not re-IPL from the target device.

To set up the re-IPL settings, a call to chreipl is required from within the installed system. This is required beccause chreipl uses a helper script to detect the IPL device for linear mapped devices, for example, LVM or multipath devices.

Note that there is also a change required for the rootskel package to reset the debian-installer/exit/always_halt to false.

Please pick up the patches provided in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=813506 which fix this problem.
