Bug Description
What is expected to happen: When installing the Ubuntu Karmic Koala Alpha 6, and once the installer has finished, clicking reboot should reboot the machine and start it again to boot into the fresh Ubuntu installation.
What happened instead: The reboot button will kill and start X, over and over again, doing a loop.
This happens in Ubuntu Karmic Koala Alpha 6 and Netbook Remix.
While switching from X to TTY, it shows random messages that will differ in the desktop and netbook edition, but it's the same thing.
I'm using VirtualBox OSE, and in the installation process i configured Ubuntu to log in automatically, using the installer (Install Ubuntu option, in the CD menu)
I've been able to reproduce this problem 3 out of 3 times, two of them using the desktop CD and the last one using the netbook remix CD.

Hi beyecixramd,
Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` and `dmesg`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (and maybe Xorg.0.log.old) file from after reproducing this issue. If you're using a custom /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.
