Bug Description

Binary package hint: casper

when i do reboot ("sudo reboot" or k->leave->reboot) init drops to a busybox shell, and i'm able to boot again only if turn off the computer with the power button (with ctrl+alt+canc it drops again to the shell).
To reproduce: install and run usb-creator, make a bootable usb pen with a persistence file, boot from it and then enter "sudo reboot" in any shell.
Tested with another pen and pc, same results...(in some cases simply looks like the pen wasn't even plugged, and so don't even load the bootloader)
All fine with halt.
I'm using kubuntu intrepid 8.10 as base system and the same install cd as image for usb-creator,
thanks for help
