LET ME MAKE ONE THING PERFECTLY CLEAR:
No installer, EVER, is allowed to just reboot my system.
I don't care how acey urgent it is that the system restarts, you're not allowed to just do it.
HP are now right at the top of my shit list.

Yeah, but this has to be a first on Unix.
I did subsequently find exactly _what_ happened. Wasn't the installer triggering a reboot ... well not exactly anyway...
