Bug Description
Once you download an update, their is dialog shown which has the following infos :
[Description] The phone needs to restart to install the system update.
[Button] Install & Restart
The button text should be "Restart & Install" to match the description and real update installation process which means the update is installed after the restart not before.

What is actually happening is a series of things not completely represented by the text. Restart and Install may also be confusing/incorrect to the use fwiw. Phone reboots into recovery, the pending update is applied, the phone reboots to Ubuntu, optionally more processing is performed during that boot.

Adding text from a duplicate bug:
Updater should give user more verbose pre-update-install warning what is going to happen next and what is (not)expected from user. e.g.
"Phone will now reboot in order to install updates. During installation, do not try to power off or reset device. Once update is complete phone will reboot again to complete installation, which can be slower than usual device boot."
Tested on stable arale v2.

Pat, that duplicate bug 1468305 does not seem to be related to this bug, and as I explained there almost all of that suggested text is redundant. If you'd like to discuss that further, please reopen that bug report.

Thanks, that seems to make sense.
Matthew, what do you think about the suggestion? If you agree, could you update the design?
