Bug Description
Binary package hint: eject-udeb
Currently at the end of a server install it ejects the CD.
In the case where someone is doing a remote install, you want to confirm that the system has been installed correctly, if the installer ejects the CD then there's no way for the sysadmin to correct a problem without calling someone locally or driving out to the datacenter to slide the CD back into the server.
If eject doesn't eject the CD then the sysadmin has the option of booting off the local disk and confirming that things work and/or booting off the CD in the case where the install failed.

I've had this issue when working via an IPKVM and configuring a fakeraid device. Had a bit of an issue installing grub and had to submit support tickets every time I needed the CD door closed.
